Speakers
Session Program
This interactive symposium will bring together leading practitioners, researchers, and people with lived experience to unpack the often-overlooked intersection between trauma and neurodivergence in children and young people. Drawing on diverse perspectives, we will explore how trauma can shape and sometimes obscure, the presentation of autism, ADHD, FASD and other neurodivergent profiles, as well as how neurodivergence can influence the experience, expression, and recovery from trauma.
