Many adults diagnosed with ADHD feel there's more to their story. They might experience sensory sensitivities, a strong preference for routine, social differences, or intense interests that aren't fully explained by ADHD alone. This session offers a compassionate introduction to AuDHD—the intersection of Autism and ADHD—designed both for individuals curious about their identity and therapists or coaches seeking deeper insight. Participants will learn how to identify autistic traits that often go unnoticed in adults diagnosed with ADHD, understand why recognizing autism alongside ADHD can lead to more effective support, and gain practical strategies to help clients or themselves. Real-life examples and relatable experiences will illustrate common misunderstandings and highlight how identifying AuDHD enhances self-awareness, reduces burnout, and fosters more affirming therapeutic approaches. This session emphasizes validating personal experiences and provides actionable next steps, including recommended self-assessment tools, advocacy strategies, and guidance for finding supportive communities. Both individuals exploring AuDHD for themselves and professionals aiming to deepen their knowledge will leave equipped with greater clarity, compassion, and practical skills to better support the AuDHD community.
