In recent years, the term “neurodivergence” has gained increasing recognition, yet many people are still unfamiliar with what it truly means. Neurodivergence refers to variations in the way individuals’ brains function, think, and process information. This umbrella term encompasses conditions such as ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and more.
Neurodivergence is not a deficit or something that needs to be “fixed.” It is simply a different way of experiencing and interacting with the world. While neurodivergent individuals may face challenges in environments designed for neurotypical people, they also possess unique strengths and perspectives. For example, someone with ADHD might be highly creative or excel in problem-solving, while a person with autism might have exceptional focus and attention to detail.
At Sunlight Psychotherapy, we celebrate neurodiversity and work with clients to navigate the challenges and embrace the strengths that come with being neurodivergent. Whether you are seeking to understand your diagnosis, improve self-esteem, or develop tools to thrive in a neurotypical world, we are here to support you.
