Challenging Stigma in Counseling for Neurodivergence and

Title:
Challenging Stigma in Counseling for Neurodivergence and Disabilities
Presenter:
Olivia Fadul, LPC, NCC
Description:
1 billion people in the world are disabled. In the United States alone, as many as 61 million adults have a disability; an estimated 15-20% are neurodivergent (CDC, 2020; NIH 2022). Nationally, clients with disabilities experience about 5 times more emotional distress than nondisabled clients (CDC, 2020). We will address the heavy toll of stigmatization and discrimination among individuals with disabilities, including the neurodiverse. Because individuals with disabilities remain the largest minority in the nation there is a demand for professional counselors to increase their competencies in this area. In this engaging interactive training, get ready to learn the ABCs of affirmative care for clients with neurodivergence, disabilities, and intersectional identities. Participants will build a neurodivergent and disability-affirmative toolkit with the facilitator. We will cap off this presentation by providing tangible resources created by the facilitator.
