Still reflecting on the past two days at the LOAPA Still reflecting on the past two days at the LOAPAC Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy Conference @ndaffirmingtherapyconference - my brain is full and I feel both excited and overwhelmed by all the discussions 🥳🤯🥸

A few of the highlights that will stay with me:

✨ Marie Camin’s @mariecamin reflections on the intergenerational impact of autistic unmet needs and the relational misunderstandings that can happen without conscious awareness. Seeing this on a daily basis in practice - having it outlined in a framework was so validating!

✨ Casey Brocksopp’s @holistictherapyconsulting reminder to centre non-speaking neurodivergent people in our work—voices that are still so often overlooked.

✨ Aimee Pember’s @neurobloom.learninghub beautiful discussion on becoming a mother and intuitive parenting, which resonated with me on such a personal level 🥹

✨ Cath Fernando’s @spoons_advocacy thoughts on creating the conditions for authentic friendships. Her analogy that “friendship is like falling asleep—if you’re actively trying, it doesn’t work” is one I’ll be carrying with me into every school meeting in the future. Such a great way to articulate supporting social needs. 

✨ Den @den_abreu_haven_psychology @havenpsychology & Lil’s @neurokinnection exploration of the intent vs impact gap really stayed with me—how the sender’s meaning and the receiver’s nervous system can experience the same interaction so differently. Their question, “What is true for you?”, felt like such a simple yet powerful invitation to curiosity and connection.

I’m so grateful to every speaker who shared their passion, lived experience and expertise so generously. It was a privilege to learn from you all.

Big thanks to lovely chats with Adelle @neurodivergent_ally, Mickey @mimbalu_australia, Esther @sproutpsychology, Connie @socialstencil, Emma-Rose @emmarosepsychologist and Tara & Steve @findyourvoiceorg ♥️

A huge thank you to Lana @busylittlebeebooks, Yael @yaelclarkpsychologist, Liam @liamspicer_ and @loapac_psychologists for the opportunity to attend. I left feeling challenged, inspired and excited to keep learning. 🤍

As a psychologist, I’m always on the lookout for r As a psychologist, I’m always on the lookout for resources that truly get it; and I’m so excited to be reading “My Busy Brain” by Natalie Shaw 💛

Natalie is a local mum, nurse, author and fierce advocate for her little ADHD’er. She recognised a real gap in the supports available for kids with ADHD when her son was diagnosed. Resources often felt either too soft and flowery, or too harsh and clinical. So she created something better.

My Busy Brain beautifully captures both the strengths and the real challenges of ADHD, while also reflecting the practical supports kids actually use in everyday life. It’s honest, empowering, and relatable; without pathologising or sugarcoating.

I can’t recommend this enough for primary school–aged children and their parents. 

A wonderful conversation starter for families navigating ADHD, and a fantastic addition to classrooms and therapy spaces too. 👏 

I’m so grateful to have met such a powerhouse of a human and I can’t wait to use this resource in practice. Thank you Natalie!
