Course Description

Overview

Explore the concept of neurodiversity and its importance in a thought-provoking TEDx talk delivered by Krista Carvin, a Registered Social Worker and founder of The Curious Collective. Discover how Carvin's personal journey with an Adult ADHD diagnosis led her to embrace the Neurodiversity Movement and specialize in psychotherapy for neurodivergent individuals. Gain insights into the patterns that emerged from her experiences working in emergency departments, intensive care units, and as a psychotherapist during the early stages of the pandemic. Learn about the value of diverse human minds and the significance of authenticity, acceptance, and equal love for all brains and bodies. Understand the potential for joy and justice that can arise from embracing neurodiversity, and how this perspective can impact therapy, education, and activism work focused on helping neurodivergent individuals feel safe, well, and accepted.
