A Mental Fitness Approach to Understanding Neurodiversity

Every child thinks, feels and responds to the world differently, and understanding these differences helps us create environments where all children can navigate challenges, feel connected and ask for help when they need it.

Join neuropsychologist Dr Hannah Korrel and Gotcha4Life’s Joy Adan as they unpack some of the most frequently asked questions about neurodiversity in primary-aged children.

From recognising how neurodiversity can show up beyond common stereotypes to understanding what might sit behind anxiety, low mood or big behaviours, this practical conversation will explore how mental fitness strategies can be adapted to make mental fitness more accessible and meaningful for every child.

This webinar you will:

• Understand what ADHD and autism actually look like in primary-aged children, beyond the stereotypes

• Recognise the presentations that commonly go unnoticed, including masking, and why a child might act differently at home versus at school

• Get clear on stigma, blame and what a diagnosis actually does (and doesn't) mean

• Hear practical, relatable examples you'll recognise from your own kitchen table
