About this Event
This training will provide insight on how living with a neurodivergent diagnosis impacts the ACES score and will illuminate the evolution of clinical intervention used for this demographic. This will cover a variety of stages of life from early childhood to aging adulthood. We will review the basics of defining Neurodiversity, the history of ABA, how outdated clinical practices have contributed to trauma, and learn the modern therapeutic approaches to treat people with Neurodiversity.
