Adult Neurodiversity Affirming Support Groups
Several Dates/Times
with Dr. Jaclyn Halpern and/or Becca Liberty, MS
In our Neurodiversity Affirming Support Groups, neurodivergent adults meet to support each other. Each group is matched based on age, gender identity, and desired support. Each group works together to establish goals and topics of discussion. These might include supporting each other in navigating a predominantly neurotypical world, identifying internalized ableism, learning more about different neurotypes, sharing tips and tricks for managing day to day frustrations, supporting each others' experiences in school and work, and/or navigating relationships. Our therapist facilitators ensure a safe, affirming space where neurodivergent adults can interact and support each other. Therapists will engage more or less, based on the desires of each group. They are available to provide psychoeducation, structure, and guidance based on each group's identified needs and wants.
