Reframing Neurodiversity

35. Supporting ADHD from a Holistic Lens with Megan Barnett


Listen Later

In this episode of Reframing Neurodiversity, I chat withMegan Barnett, an Executive Function coach, to dive into the holistic ways we can support neurodivergent children and their families. We discuss the importance of addressing ADHD, anxiety, and other challenges from a strengths-based and compassionate lens, rather than focusing solely on behaviors. You'll hear us explore how nervous system regulation, emotional connection, and rethinking traditional systems play a pivotal role in helping neurodivergent kids—and their parents—thrive!

What you’ll learn:

  • How emotional regulation and nervous system awareness are key to supporting neurodivergent children
  • Why addressing root causes, like trauma and chronic stress, can transform executive function strategies
  • The challenges of navigating traditional school systems for neurodivergent kids
  • How parents’ self-regulation and support can positively impact their child’s success
  • The benefits of a holistic approach that combines neuroscience, emotional connection, and family collaboration
