Listen in as psychotherapist Heidi Rogers speaks with ordinary people about their extraordinary lives. Heidi also provides professional insight into some of parenting's toughest challenges - tailor-made for families with strong-willed or neurodivergent kids. Uplifting tales of personal growth, overcoming adversity, life lessons, and tools for parenting kids who are 'differently wired' that inspire us to ‘tell the others’...
Tell The Others
Should I have my child assessed?
I often hear from parents:
"My child’s teacher has recommended my son / daughter have an assessment to understand their behaviors a bit more. I’m not sure how I feel about this. I think a label will hurt them long-term and I don’t want them to be treated differently."
In this clip, I share my thoughts on this and provide some guidance around WHY an assessment may or may not be helpful.
I hope it helps!
