Discovering Autism later in life is a mix of both Relief and Grief for a newly diagnosed person.  In this presentation we will explore the mental health journey of integrating a new identity after years or decades of misdiagnosis. Specifically focusing on the relief of finally understanding your lived experience and the grief of not knowing sooner. Working with neurodivergent clients requires deconstructing neurotypical expectations, unlearning internalized ableism, processing trauma and supporting advocacy. Jamie shares both her clinical insights as well as lived experiences with a later in life diagnosis of Autism and ADHD.
