Learn More about Dr. Mike & JulieWhat You'll Learn
Gifted/2e children often struggle with issues related to social/emotional growth and/or regulation. As a result, large numbers of these children battle anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, social anxiety, and even have difficulty with executive functioning.
This is due to asynchronous development related to intense sensory integration (epigenetics) that can easily overwhelm an already vulnerable limbic system.
This workshop will outline the latest neuro research on the gifted/2e/neurodivergent brain and how it affects metacognition (or self understanding). Each session is designed to inform and provide practical strategies to help your gifted/2e child and family move from a place of simply surviving to thriving in every communal environment including schools.
You will learn that developing social and emotional foundations are critical to the success of every gifted/2e/neurodivergent child/individual in any life setting whether that be in school, at home or within the greater community. You will also learn why that is and what it takes to get there.
"High quality product with such helpful and informative content that we put into practice right away and we were able to understand our gifted son better. I especially loved the live discussion groups each week - just wonderful to have this community and support"
"Great topics. They were deep, but not too deep as they are broken down well for us to learn. I liked that each session built upon the previous session and the guidebook was so helpful to make it personal for our son and our family’s journey. Great course!"
"Each session of this workshop has been such a revelation and we have learn so much valuable and practical information from each session. We highly recommend other parents of their gifted/twice-exceptional child take this course."
"I love the family approach Dr. Mike and Julie use in their workshop and coaching sessions. It really helps in getting our family on the same page together, and helps in our communications with one another and in building a family plan of action to move forward. We have all learned so much and are feeling hopeful again!"
