Course overview

One in seven people in the UK are neurodivergent yet girls and women are all too often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and overlooked. As a result, many girls and women are underdiagnosed, experience poor mental health outcomes, miss out on valuable support, and are denied opportunities to fulfil their potential.

With a focus on Autism and ADHD, this course will improve your understanding of the issues relating to neurodivergent women and girls.

At the end of this course delegates will be able to:

Recognise the impact of myths, stereotypes, and different forms of presentation
Identify the barriers to diagnosis and support
Evaluate the latest theories and research relating to neurodivergent women and girls.
Explain the impact of masking and camouflaging
Apply this knowledge to promote neuroinclusive practice

Who should attend

This course is suitable for anyone with an interest in neurodiversity, women and girls. .

All delegates will receive a copy of the presentation and a pack containing all Salvesen Mindroom Centre resources.
