How to Support Neurodivergent Tweens and Teens Who Are Stalling Out

A powerful and practical conversation with Ned Johnson & Debbie Reber

Many neurodivergent students flounder at some point during their middle and high school years due to challenges related to asynchronous development, mental health, lagging executive functioning skills, identity development, fledgling social skills, and anxiety about the future. At the same time, parents and caregivers are facing their own worries about increased demands in school, the consequences of poor school performance, and potentially risky behavior as their kids individuate and navigate adolescence.

Building Stress Tolerance & Motivation (Part 1)

For parents and caregivers who want to better show up for and support struggling tweens and teens. This Masterclass explores:

  • What the science tells us about how to motivate kids

  • How to effectively provide scaffolding to differently wired students to support their growth, agency, and development

  • What's at the root of low frustration tolerance, and how to increase our kids' ability to tolerate stress (while honoring and respecting their nervous systems and neurodivergence)

  • How to reset a parent-child dynamic that isn't working and is building further division and conflict

  • Strategies for managing our own anxieties, worries, and expectations so we can show up as a supportive presence while fostering deeper connection
