other Neurodivergent Therapists in Clinical Settings

1.5 CE hours available for behavioral health clinicians

Neurodivergent clinicians often bring extraordinary insight, empathy, and skill to their work—yet many face systemic barriers, burnout, and supervision models that don’t fit.
For too long, neurodivergent clinicians have had to adapt to systems that weren’t built with them in mind. This course helps you change that—by creating supervision that validates, uplifts, and empowers every step of the way.

It’s not just about doing better—it’s about rethinking what support truly means. Through this course, you’ll learn how to foster a supervisory environment where neurodivergent therapists can show up fully, grow confidently, and feel genuinely seen.
