Micro-Course Description

Stop Managing.
Start Connecting.

This course focuses on how you show up in your relationship with your neurodivergent child or teen—especially when things feel hard.

You’ll explore three powerful relationship paradigms that help shift interactions away from urgency, correction, and power struggles—and toward trust, presence, and collaboration.

Rather than asking, “How do I get my child to do more?” this course helps you ask, “How do I create the conditions for growth?”


Format: Short videos, guided reflections, practical examples

Time: ~45–60 minutes total (self-paced) with 30 minutes more for self-reflection

Outcome: Deeper trust, stronger connection, and more sustainable progress

Note: Although this micro-course and guide are sold individually here, they are also the third course in our Foundational Series Bundle.


Parents with neurodivergent children.

Reflection & Action Guide

  • Why reflect?

    This 13 page guide supports parents in noticing how habits of managing, fixing, or controlling can quietly take the place of connection. Through relational and candid prompts, it helps parents reflect on moments of tension, repair, and closeness while highlighting how presence, curiosity, and emotional attunement often do more than strategies alone. The guide is designed to deepen awareness of how small shifts in how we show up can strengthen trust and connection over time.

  • What can I expect?

    These guides are carefully crafted using research-informed practices from psychology and relational learning. Every question is intentional and designed to surface patterns, not judgments, and to support insight rather than quick fixes.

    The goal is not to “get it right,” but to create clarity, empathy, and forward movement over time.

Who is this micro-course for?

This course is designed for:

  • Parents and caregivers of neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults, especially if your child, teen, or young adult is newly diagnosed.
  • Adults who feel stuck in cycles of tension, correction, or emotional distance
  • Parents who want to strengthen connection without giving up boundaries
  • Therapists, educators, and coaches supporting neurodivergent youth and families

Do you find yourself thinking?

This course is especially helpful if you find yourself thinking:

  • “I don’t know when to step in and when to back off.”
  • “Conversations shut down before they really begin.”
  • “I’m trying so hard—but it feels like we’re missing each other.”

Why does the course matter?

Many neurodivergent young people grow up feeling like they are constantly performing—for school, for adults, for expectations they didn’t design. Over time, this can erode curiosity, confidence, and trust in relationships.

At these moments, parents often feel the pressure to:
  • Fix problems quickly
  • Push progress when it appears
  • Say the “right” thing at the “right” moment

This course helps you step out of that pressure and learn how slowing down, listening differently, and redefining roles can actually move things forward.
