A therapist (SLP/ST, OT, PT) may become an official member if you meet our provider requirements (credentialed and/or licensed) and agree to our ethics and values.
Students enrolled in an accredited, university-level program leading to certification and/or a license to practice speech-language pathology, speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy or physiotherapy, or to practice as a licensed assistant may become a student member with your university email address.
Therapist Neurodiversity Collective believes that the Neurodiversity Movement is a Human Rights Movement. First and foremost, we are activists and advocates.
- Membership is not automatic. We do turn down therapists if they do not meet membership requirements.
- All memberships require administrative vetting and approval prior to admittance. Approvals are done Monday – Friday, only, and the process may take up to 72 hours.
- Please make certain you meet our requirements to join prior to submitting a membership application. We have a no-tolerance position for the use of ABA, including positive supports/rewards in our practices, as well as a no-tolerance policy for neurotypical social skills training.
- Please make certain you agree to adhere to our Terms of Use and hotlinking policies.
- Please review our positions prior to submitting an application to make certain your practices parallel our positions because if your application is denied for any of the above reasons you will be refunded the cost of the membership dues minus a 20% administrative fee.
