.The field of psychology has historically pathologized Neurodivergent (ND) people and failed to see their innate health and wisdom. Nyck Walsh’s model, Neurodivergent Somatics, provides clinicians with a concrete framework for providing ND-affirming care that is anti-ableist, somatic, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Building upon the foundations from “The Dos and Donts of Counseling with ND Clients,” this 2 Part series will delve into the model’s three tenets: Pleasure/Neutrality, Global Permission, and Client as Self-expert. We will learn how to apply them to both clients and the therapists who work with them.
In Part 1, we will explore specific somatic tools and strategies to support nervous system regulation for both clients and therapists. We will explore boundaries as a source of differentiation essential to empowerment, clarity, and unmasking, both for clients and therapists. Through learning and applying these principles to your counseling practice, you will benefit not only your ND clients but all of your clients.
In Part 2 of this training, we will continue our exploration of Client as Self-Expert and cover Global Permission. We will examine how ableism/internalized ableism lives within us and inadvertently creates rules that dictate what we believe makes a "good" therapist and client. We will wander through the forest of accommodations and executive function support that clients and therapists need to exist in this world and be well. Through learning and applying these principles to your counseling practice, you will benefit not only your ND clients but all of your clients.
