Coming to Terms with the Idea of ADHD or Autism

Supporting a neurodivergent child can be rewarding, but it can also feel overwhelming at times. This video is part of a free parent and carer series created by the North Somerset Educational Psychology Service. For printable fridge guides accompanying this series, please visit our online training library: https://n-somerset.gov.uk/my-services... The series explores practical, needs-led approaches for supporting neurodivergent children with everyday challenges including emotional regulation, sensory differences, anxiety, routines, transitions, eating, sleep, behaviour and family wellbeing. Whether your child is diagnosed, awaiting assessment, or simply finding daily life difficult, these videos aim to help you understand the needs behind behaviour and develop practical strategies that support long-term wellbeing and independence. In this video, we focus on understanding and accepting the needs typically associated with ADHD and Autism.
