Neurodivergent... Meaning what?

There is NOTHING wrong with you if you seek neurodivergent therapy. It may feel like this world wasn’t made for you. Or that it’s hard to fit into the mold.

You may see the terms neurodivergent, neurodiverse, or neurodivergence more and more these days.  If you’re on this page it may be because you resonate with having a brain that works “differently”. Meaning that you might also feel like you’ve had to struggle to “fit in” to a neurotypical world.

Above all, you think and function in a unique way. If you have any of the following then your brain has developed differently.

Neurodivergence is the term for when someone’s brain processes in a different way. Meaning that it learns and/or behaves differently from what is considered “typical.”

Neurodiversity is the idea that it’s not only acceptable. But it is normal for people to have brains that function differently. Rather than thinking there is something wrong or problematic. Especially when some people don’t operate similarly to others. Neurodiversity embraces all differences. The concept of neurodiversity recognizes that brain function and behavioral traits are indicators. Which show how diverse the human population is.

Common Things We See In Neurodivergent Therapy in Charlotte North Carolina

“When you’re excited, you’re REALLY excited. You’re passionate.  You’re creative. The way your brain thinks outside of the box is a gift.  It’s magical. You may find yourself more comfortable around people who think differently. Just like you.  There’s an unspoken comfortability in feeling seen, understood, and valued.

It’s important to remember that neurodiversity is a spectrum. It’s not black and white, and it’s not all or nothing. Resilient Mind Counseling can help support you with your neurodivergent journeys. It all starts with a single step forward.”

We use the medication in a tool kit alongside therapy and skills that we integrate together as a mental health team. We would like to see people less reliant on medication and will create a holistic plan to facilitate lasting healing.

Start Neurodivergent Therapy

Reasons To Start Neurodivergent Therapy

Lots of people who are neurodivergent struggle with executive functioning.  Think of this as a filing system or office manager in your brain that is out to lunch.  It’s hard to complete tasks, see things through, and stay organized. Oftentimes it’s challenging to do household tasks. Such as folding the laundry, doing the dishes, etc. 

  • Do you struggle to walk through a grocery store because of all the sounds and sights? Causing you to run out without anything on your list because it’s so DAMN overwhelming? 
  • Maybe you have a hard time with small talk and artificial conversation?  
  • Does your brain light up with energy, sparking a creative wave that always ends in a crash? 
  • Sometimes when you’re talking do you get really excited and then “OH SQUIRREL”? Do you feel like you get distracted or change topics rapidly? 

Our therapists believe that people who are neurodivergent or have neurodiverse brains are beautiful, unique, and extraordinary.  Society tells us that we have to fit into something that wasn’t made for us. For example… 

  • 9-5 jobs? No Thank You!
  • Overwhelming social situations with too many people, sounds, smells, lights? HARD PASS!
  • Small talk? Run for your life!

I’m nervous about starting therapy. Is that normal?

Therapy can be vulnerable and new, so it’s natural to be nervous. It can be scary to think of opening up or crying in front of someone new, perhaps fearing that it will be awkward and uncomfortable. The fear around that can feel overwhelming. Getting the counseling we need can be challenging. And although it’s normal to be nervous, that doesn’t make it feel great. It takes courage to continue getting the help you need.

Therapy is a space where you can be yourself and feel safe from judgment, including feeling nervous. We’re committed to finding a way to care for your nervousness and ensure sessions are as comfortable as possible.

We’re here if you want to talk about it during a free phone consultation.

Take your time to read through this website. If you sense that we may be a good fit based on what you are reading, you can call us.

During a free phone consultation, you can ask one of our therapists about how they have helped other people like you before, ask how they work as a therapist, or any other questions you may have that are specific-to-you. You’ll also be able to tell them what’s up, and you and one of our therapists can decide together how they can help.

It will usually take a couple of sessions to feel comfortable and develop a relationship. During the sessions, you’ll be able to understand how comfortable you feel in sessions. Our approach is not going to work for everyone. What’s most important is that you find someone who you feel is the right fit for you. We can explore that together.

If something feels overwhelming or even terrifying to discuss, that’s actually very normal. It can often feel difficult to talk about some things. During sessions, your therapist will never push you to talk about things that are too painful for you to talk about. They will be there to guide you towards discovering what feels comfortable for you to share. Working at your pace, together you can look at the tough stuff if you’re ready.

You can also share with them that you are nervous to open up about something, and you and your therapist can talk about that too. Whatever is present for you. Whatever you are going through. Bring that to session and you can explore that together.

If you open up, we will not think you are crazy. We will think you are someone who’s very courageous. Many clients have had the same fear (that people would think they are crazy).

Through our own life journeys and working with clients, we know how “normal” your experience is.

You’re not being dramatic or “too much.” Nothing you can say will cause us to judge you.

We know nobody’s perfect. We all struggle. We all suffer in different ways.

Whatever it is you’re going through, we provide a safe space where you can feel heard and supported without judgment.

You might already know that you want to share sensitive information about your loved ones and you don’t want them to find out what you’ve said. So we want you to know that unless there is an imminent danger to yourself or someone else, everything you share is completely confidential.

There is nothing more important than your privacy.

You can rest assured that you can talk about anything without fear of that information getting out.

If you have specific questions about how confidentiality works, you can ask during your free phone consultation or anytime during your work with your therapist.

Overall, you can think of the first session as a structured assessment that helps your therapist get to know you and the challenges that brought you into treatment. They’ll invite you to share more about yourself, and you can also talk about what’s worked or not worked for your mental health in the past.

Some questions that your therapist might ask during a first session include:

  • What brought you to therapy?
  • Have you gone to therapy before? How did that go?
  • What do I need to know about you to understand your current challenges?

You can ask your therapist questions as well. You might be curious about their experience or how future sessions work.

The most important part of a first session is that you see if you feel your therapist is a good fit for you. If you feel supported, seen, and at ease with them, you can discuss if you’d like to meet again.
