My Child Is Not Fine At School

Your child isn’t happy at school. They are protesting in the mornings, or having meltdowns in the afternoons. They tell you that they don’t want to go, and you feel torn between them and the school. School are telling you that the answer is to keep pushing, as you don’t want to reinforce avoidance or behaviour. It’s starting to dominate everything about your family life, and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better.

Helping Autistic Children With School

Many autistic children struggle with school. They become unhappy and they show us this through their behaviour. They may become reluctant to go, they may have meltdowns after school, they may become disruptive or 'lose their spark'. Parents and educators are often left unsure what to do - the child can't tell them what is wrong, but it's clear that something is. What can you do?

Helping your Neurodivergent Teen Recover from School

Many neurodivergent teens are struggling to attend school, and lots of them become completely unable to attend. But what happens next?

In this new course, Naomi will give you some ideas to help your teenager re-engage with learning and see a life beyond school. This course focuses on the learning and educational journey, rather than mental health.

For professionals

Working with Demand Avoidant Children: The Art and Science of Low Demand Therapy

Demand avoidant children confound all of our expectations. You ask them to do something, and they react as if you’re shouting. You show them that you’re pleased with them, and they respond by saying they’ll never do that again.  The harder you try, the more difficult things become.   What’s going on, and how can therapists work effectively with demand avoidant children?  In this engaging and illustrated mini-course you’ll gain an understanding of demand avoidance and what it is. You’ll learn some practical ways to engage these children.  It is suitable for anyone working therapeutically with children and teenagers, including psychologists, child psychotherapists, occupational therapists, drama therapists, art therapists and speech and language therapists. It might also be of interest to school SENCos although it focuses on the one-to-one.
