Neurodivergent Parents Group

This fall, Chloe McKinley BA-CYC, MACP and Kate Bonnell MACP, CCC are offering a semi-structured therapy group supporting parents and guardians of neurodivergent children. We welcome anyone who is looking to learn new tools around navigating daily life with neurodivergence, and connect with other parents who share the same experiences. Some of the topics will include non-violent communication, self-regulation, and overcoming judgement and shame. When we've run this group in the past, it is loosely structured, but then tailored to the central concerns and experiences that group of particular members to ensure folks take away something meaningful. 

This group will start on Monday Sept 23 and Wednesday Sept 25, 2024 and run 6 weeks. We have offerings set up on Mondays over lunch time, and Wednesdays in the evening. We are looking to gauge interest for an in-person group as well as the online offerings, so let us know if you're interested as well as the best day of the week. As this grows, we're hopeful to expand the offerings to help as many parents as possible.

The cost will be $465 per person for the full 6 weeks, (paid in full before the first session). Because this is a psychotherapy group, you could be eligible for coverage through extended health care, or autism funding depending on your coverage. If you have questions about payment or funding, feel free to reach out.

Chloe has been working with families in the Cowichan Valley for a number of years, and is a registered provider with the Autism Funding Unit. 

See more details on the poster, or sign up for the mailing list if you are interested in participating. Please share with anyone you think would like to know about it!

The mailing list will only be used to coordinate for this group, arrange intakes prior to the start, or give updates about those sessions. It will not be used for any other marketing or shared with anyone.
