Our Parent Support Groups are virtual, neurodiversity-affirming spaces for parents who want connection, understanding, and support. Informed by parent feedback and facilitated by clinicians with lived experience, these groups focus on real conversations about diagnosis, burnout, identity, and the everyday realities of caregiving. This is not about parenting “better,” but about having space to exhale, reflect, and feel less alone — in ways that fit into already full lives.
Parenting a neurodivergent late adolescent or young adult, particularly following a later diagnosis or when your young person doesn't fit neatly into expected developmental timelines or available systems, can leave you constantly wondering what comes next.
This closed, virtual parent group with Sarah Philbrick-Djerfi, Master's Level Registered Social Worker, offers a supportive space to connect with other parents, share experiences, and explore practical approaches to regulation, autonomy, communication, boundaries, caregiver wellbeing, and adulthood.
The group is neuroaffirming and PDA-informed, with a focus on understanding what is happening beneath the surface rather than simply managing behaviour.

Parenting a child who needs significant support can leave caregivers carrying an enormous emotional and practical load. This group offers a space to connect with other parents, share experiences, and explore how caregiver regulation, burnout, and wellbeing intersect with supporting your child's emotional regulation.
The group is neuroaffirming and PDA-informed, with a focus on understanding demand avoidance, regulation, connection, and sustainable approaches to parenting.
Led by Louise Gleeson, Master's Level Registered Psychotherapist, parents will have opportunities to share experiences, learn from one another, and explore practical approaches with facilitator guidance. Topics may include caregiver burnout, co-regulation, emotional regulation, PDA and demand sensitivity, and the emotional realities of parenting.
