Welcome to the

Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy & Assessments

The DivergAntz Collective is a multi-disciplinary team of neurodivergent affirming, allied health, professionals. We provide a range of services for children, adults, families and professionals via Telehealth, including:

We are committed to improving the journey for individuals and families through diagnosis. This includes supporting those on their journey to understand their neurotype, access education to support their understanding and connect with their neurokin to find their tribe.

We want to help make the experience of diagnosis one which is lined with optimism, hope and the surreal, awesome clarity which comes from finally understanding your neurotype.

Please, climb down the rabbit hole with us …

If you require a non-ABA response to complex issues or presentation in your child and are scared to use your Improved Relationships funding due to your own previous experiences, you can trust Instinct Au as they are Autistic led and based on neuroscience and sensory-based strategies. To access Instinct Au, click here.

If you would like to do some self-tests regarding Autism, we recommend the ones provided by Embrace Autism. You can access their website here.

We also encourage any adults seeking diagnosis to complete a CAT-Q Self-Assessment. This is about social camouflaging (masking / suppressing autistic traits) and often provides a very high score to unassessed adults. You can find this here

If you want to do a self-test for ADHD, you could try any of these, however none of these are as comprehensive as we would like.

If you’re looking for resources as a parent, with a newly diagnosed child, we recommend the Brain Building set of resources here.

If you’re looking for sensory-friendly, autistic affirming therapies for your little person, which are child-led and play-based, check out our sister company TEC, The Experience Collectors.

If you’re looking for information about one of our favourite Autistic Advocates, Summer Farrelly, you can access their website and information about their Chickens to Love Program here.

If you’re an academic yourself and struggling to find affirming resources to cite in assessment, feel free to use any from Tara’s personal collection here
