Welcome
Many people find themselves wanting to understand neurodivergence — not just as a label, but in terms of how it actually shows up in their lives. Often, people are left trying to piece things together on their own, without access to clear, accessible psychoeducation about their neurotype. Therapy can be a valuable space to explore this, but there is often a need for something more structured and self-paced — something that can be returned to over time, alongside or outside of therapy. This course was created to meet that need. Understanding Your Neurotype offers a thoughtful, non-pathologising approach to psychoeducation, grounded in nervous system awareness and lived experience. It is designed to help you build clarity, language, and understanding in a way that feels manageable, compassionate, and practical.
What this course is (and isn’t)
It is: ▪️ Psychoeducational ▪️ Self-directed ▪️ Reflective and structured ▪️ Grounded in nervous system awareness It is not: ▪️ Therapy. ▪️ A diagnostic assessment ▪️ A quick fix or step-by-step solution Many people choose to use this course alongside therapy, as a shared reference point for reflection and language, but it is also designed to be used independently.

It’s about understanding yourself more honestly and kindly.
