Vision
Therapist Neurodiversity Collective is a therapy, education, and advocacy international collaborative for licensed therapists and licensed assistants. We provide families, caregivers, and clients free access to a worldwide directory of credentialed and licensed pro-neurodiversity-focused, trauma-informed therapists, businesses, and organizations. Our therapists do not use ABA in our therapy practices for ethical reasons. We are aligned with the Neurodiversity Movement as a human rights campaign. The Therapist Neurodiversity Collective advocates for changes in therapy practices to reflect presuming competence in the people we serve, championing human rights and dignity of the disabled, and respecting neurodivergent communication and sensory differences. The Therapist Neurodiversity Collective actively partners with other Autistic, neurodivergent, and disabled people to provide updates in contemporary research, educational resources, and educational training opportunities that reflect our core values.
Mission
Therapist Neurodiversity Collective’s mission is to provide free public access to trauma-informed, neurodiversity paradigm aligned therapists, to advocate with our therapists and the neurodivergent and disabled populations we serve, and to provide education for therapy practices and methodologies which presume competence, are non-trauma inducing and which respect human rights, dignity, and sensory preferences.
