Trying Different: Executive Functioning Strategies for Neurodiverse Humans

Presenter: Jamie-Sue Peterson, MSW, LICSW

Course Description

In this session, we will explore the impact of neurodiversity and executive functioning skills on daily challenges across the lifespan. We will begin with a brief overview of executive functioning and it’s relationship with neurodiversity. We will then spend the majority of our time exploring specific strategy templates for each executive functioning category which can be modified and adapted to individual situations both for children and for adults.

Learning Objectives

  • Participants will be able to identify the relationships between neurodiversity, trauma, and executive functioning.
  • Participants will be able to define executive functioning and at least three ways it impacts daily living in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.
  • Participants will be able to apply at least one “strategy template” to address a lagging skill or identified area of executive functioning challenge.
