Decoding Behaviour: When Adoption & Neurodiversity Meet

Is it adoption? Is it neurodiversity? Or both? Let’s decode the behaviours that leave parents feeling stuck.

Parenting is tough. Parenting through adoption and neurodiversity is even tougher. Join this 90-minute online workshop to better understand your child’s behaviours through the lens of adoption and neurodiversity (ADHD, autism, FASD, learning differences). Discover practical strategies to support emotional regulation, build connection, and reduce stress at home.

This 90-minute online workshop will unpack:

How adoption and neurodiversity intersect and influence your child’s daily struggles with regulation, learning, and relationships. We’ll explore behaviour as communication, share practical strategies for co-regulation and structure, and provide tools that help reduce stress at home.

Perfect for adoptive parents and carers who want to feel more confident and equipped in supporting their children.
