In this episode, we’re excited to be joined by Mike Cochrane (@nzpsychologyclinic), a Clinical Psychologist and fellow AuDHDer who specialises in Autistic, ADHD and AuDHD assessments. We had an insightful and validating chat about life with an AuDHD brain.
Together, we unpack:
- Commonly missed traits in ADHD and autism
- How to get a diagnosis
- Why diagnosis often comes with both relief and grief
- Strategies for navigating executive dysfunction and overwhelm
- How CBT and ACT can support AuDHDers - and when they fall short
- The recent legislation change in NZ allowing GPs to diagnose ADHD
- The importance of self-understanding, unmasking, and neurodivergent-led therapy
- and more!
We thoroughly enjoyed this chat and if you'd like more information about Mike Cochrane and his diagnosis process, head to nzpsychologyclinic.co.nz
