Why This Workshop?
Clients with ADHD, autism, or other neurodivergent profiles often experience pelvic pain differently: sensory hypersensitivity or hyposensitivity, safety, overwhelm, shutdowns, or struggles with executive functioning can profoundly shape how pain is lived and treated.
This workshop aims to equip clinicians with the knowledge and tools to see pelvic pain through a neurodivergent lens—making your care more attuned, inclusive, and effective.
Online via Zoom on 18th October, 22nd October or 1st November
2 hours duration (with breaks)

Option to share or ask as much or as little as you like. You can just listen if that’s what you’d prefer. No breakout rooms here. It’s a safe space.
