Working with neurodivergent parents

Working with neurodivergent people is completely different from working with neurotypical people. Why? Because the brain of a neurodivergent person is wired fundamentally differently from the brain of a neurotypical person. A neurodivergent brain processes in a different way, so using a neurotypical style of communication and assuming that messages are received causes high levels of stress, misunderstandings and major difficulties for neurodivergent people. It creates a huge barrier to achieving the goals and understanding that both professional and parents are hoping for. Is it fixable? Absolutely, an understanding of how neurodivergent individuals both communicate and receive information, plus an awareness of different techniques to deal with such communication problems, makes a significant difference to the patient experience and trust developed between professional and patient.
