Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 448: A Conversation with Dr. Megan Anna Neff About Autistic Burnout · 17 Jun 2025 podcast

easily missed and hard to catch, but ruling out medical conditions that are also driving the burnout, I think is really important.

And the thing I worry about my work and the conversation around autistic burnout is that it closes curiosity to maybe there's actually some biological vulnerabilities that are happening here too.

That would be one thing I just want to be sure and include in the conversation is to consider if there are medical pieces in the mix.

thank you for having me back on.

Thank you for this conversation.

I obviously feel like this is a really important thing for us to understand about ourselves and our children.

So thank you for spending time on this topic.

Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 381: Dr. Megan Anna Neff and Dr. Debra Brause on the Complex Relationship Between Traditional Therapeutic Practices & Neurodivergence · 21 May 2024 podcast

Yeah, I feel like I have kind of two foot in two worlds here.

One as as a client, so I'm autistic ADHD and like most of us, have had mental health struggles my whole life.

So I've been to various therapists.

And it wasn't until I found a very specific therapist that therapy really clicked for me.

And so my initial thoughts were just my experience as an autistic ADHD human.

navigating therapy.

And then on the other side, as a psychologist, as a clinician,

I've always adapted therapy even before I knew I was autistic.

I realized I was always adapting how I did therapy to work with my brain.

But then more so as I've now specialized working with autistic ADHD adults, see how much needs to be adapted.

And similar to Deborah, that's not something we're trained in, which can cause a lot of harm in the sense that like one thing I hear a lot from our community is they perhaps will disclose this identity to a therapist and they'll say, I'm sorry, I don't feel prepared to work with you.

And I understand why clinicians are saying that because

we're also trying to work within our scope of practice.
