Join this spractical online workshop, led by Dr. Jake Camp, exploring how neuroaffirmative principles can inform DBT-A skills training for neurodivergent young people. The session will consider how established DBT-A approaches can be delivered in ways that recognise different communication, sensory, emotional and cognitive experiences, while maintaining the core purpose of skills-based support. The workshop will help participants reflect on their current practice and identify thoughtful, practical adaptations that support greater accessibility, engagement and collaboration.
