Navigating Neurodivergence & Special Needs with Little Superheroes
Navigating Neurodivergence & Special Needs with Little Superheroes is dedicated to supporting families and caregivers of neurodivergent children. As a therapist and educator specializing in paediatric neurodevelopmental therapy—and a parent of a neurodivergent child myself—I created this podcast to share real-life experiences, expert insights, and practical strategies. Each episode dives into topics like ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Dyslexia, and more, with the goal of helping parents feel more empowered, informed, and supported in their journey.
I firmly believe that every child is a little superhero, and this podcast is a space to celebrate their unique strengths and navigate the challenges they face. Through honest conversations and valuable resources, Navigating Neurodivergence & Special Needs with Little Superheroes aims to make the path a little clearer and provide a community where families can connect and thrive. 🌟
Tune in for inspiration, support, and guidance on your child's journey to growth and healing.
