Neurodiversity-Affirming & Family-Friendly

This course is designed with neurodivergent learners in mind — including autistic individuals, ADHDers, PDA profiles, and sensory-sensitive children or teens. Each module is gentle, step-by-step, and reduces pressure rather than increasing it. You can complete it alongside therapy or use it independently at home.

FAQ

  • Is the course easy to access and navigate?

  • Will I learn anything new if I’m already in therapy?

    Absolutely. The course complements therapy perfectly. Clients say it reinforces what they’ve learned in sessions and helps them stay on track in between. Even clients working directly with Nicole found the videos and worksheets helpful in reinforcing practical skills like exposure work and regular eating routines.

  • Can I use the course on its own without having therapy?

    Yes. The course was designed to stand alone or be used alongside therapy. One client shared that even without one-to-one sessions, the course offers structure, tools, and insight. It’s especially helpful for those on waiting lists, between sessions, or beginning to explore ARFID recovery.

  • What was most helpful in the course content?

    Clients appreciated the validation around anxiety and avoidance, and the clear explanation of why certain behaviours—like skipping meals or avoiding new foods—become hard to break. The course helped some clients realise that small steps matter and that fears don’t always match reality.

  • What skills does the course help build?

    The course equips individuals and families with skills like: Step-by-step strategies to reduce food anxiety, Tools for graded food exposure, Support around hygiene rituals and sensory sensitivity, Psychoeducation on the mind-body link, Planning meals and responding to appetite loss, and Confidence-building and regular eating structure.

  • Does it cover mealtime management and real-life challenges?

    Yes. The course prepares clients for day-to-day eating, including eating out, trying new foods, and managing social situations.

  • What if I have emetophobia (fear of vomiting)?

    An emetophobia-specific module is in development and will be added soon. In the meantime, the course already addresses fears about fullness, digestion, and body signals.

  • Can parents or carers get involved?

    Yes. Many parents have found that participating in the course or joining sessions provides clarity and structure at home. The course is suitable for carers, with optional resources specifically designed to support family members.
