Supporting Neurodivergent Children and Families: A Practitioner's Guide - Paperback
by Lhara Mullins (Author)
Supporting Neurodivergent Children and Families presents an innovative blueprint using academic literature, research and theory, to provide a best practice approach in equipping practitioners to support neurodivergent children and their families.
The knowledge and insight provided in this book allows practitioners to effectively create supportive environments and plan appropriate practice responses, whilst never changing the child. By altering the system perspective and transcending the physical boundaries of space where the interaction occurs, a supportive environment is created, thus providing more positive outcomes. The blend of practice experiences, tangible case studies and theory prompts the reader to critically reflect on their practice and potentially integrate new, innovative changes to their approach.
This comprehensive and thought-provoking read is not only ideal for students and professionals who interact with neurodiverse families, but also practitioners and educators looking to alter their practical approach to understanding neurodivergent children and their families.
Dr. Lhara Mullins is a lecturer at the University of Galway in Ireland, has a PhD in health promotion and an MA in social work. Her own experiences as a neurodivergent academic, with a background in social work, and 17 years of experience interacting with health, social care and education services with her three neurodivergent children acts as a foundation for her writing.
