The Neurodivergence Skills Workbook for Teens

TheNeurodivergence Skills Workbook for Teens distills DBT skills into practical action steps, with examples designed to address the specific emotional, sensorial, and interpersonal experiences of neurodivergent youth. Using clear and accessible writing, Theurer nonjudgmentally maintains a neuro-affirming stance of warm acceptance, while at the same time guiding readers in enacting values-consistent changes toward building meaningful and fulfilling lives against the backdrop of a neurotypical world.

Finally! A workbook that centers the experiences of neurodivergent teens! Rhiannon expertly introduces foundational concepts of neurodiversity, while creating an easily accessible balance of psychoeducation, sensory needs, strategy, and tangible tools. The finishing touch of including detailed stories made every concept incredibly relatable. I’m thrilled to share this resource with my teen clients!

Rhiannon’s book will be so helpful for neurodivergent teens! It is built on a framework of neurodiversity-affirming care and compassion, which is so critical to helping youth develop the self-validation and advocacy skills they need. The book contains nonjudgmental, non-pathologized descriptions of various aspects of a neurodiverse brain and nervous system, and I love the emphasis on helping kids think about themselves and their goals through a neurodiversity-affirming framework.
