Ep91. Understanding the Unseen Systems in Observable Behavior Which are Crucial in Neurodiversity
In this episode, Dr. Debra Kessler comes onto the show to talk about her roadmap that she uses to help others understand what truly is going on for a neurodivergent individual. Her WHAT system, which stands for Wellness, Home, Around Me, and Task, highlights the unseen systems that play a massive role in observable behavior and how others may interpret a person’s behavior. Debra’s training not only as a nurse but also as a clinical psychologist, gives her a unique perspective as a child and family advocate.
