Join Dr Claire Conlon, Clinical Psychologist for an informative and supportive webinar focused on:

Understanding Anxiety in Your Neurodivergent Child 

Friday, 25th September | 12pm | Live via Zoom
€35 | FREE for Cocoon Community members
Recording available for 7 days

Anxiety can look and feel quite different for a neurodivergent child.

This webinar is for anyone who cares for or supports a neurodivergent child who may also be experiencing anxiety. Parents, teachers, caregivers, grannies, grandads and other important adults in a child’s life are all very welcome.

One of the most important things we can do when supporting an anxious neurodivergent child is to first understand why they are experiencing anxiety.

We’ll explore how anxiety can present differently in a neurodivergent brain, where that anxiety may be coming from, and why behaviours that can sometimes look like avoidance, resistance, rigidity or overwhelm often make much more sense when we understand what is happening underneath.

A big part of this webinar will be about education and understanding. Before asking “How do we stop this behaviour?”, we’ll think about “What is this child experiencing, and what might they need from us?”

From there, we’ll move into practical strategies, tips and tools that you can use alongside your child to help them feel less anxious, more confident, more in control and increasingly brave in navigating the everyday challenges they face.

The webinar will take place live via Zoom on Friday, 25th September at 12pm. If you can’t attend live, don’t worry. The webinar will be recorded and available to watch for seven days afterwards.

This webinar is FREE for members of the Cocoon Community. A link for registration will be available separately for members of the cocoon community.

For non-members, the cost is €35 per person.
