DBT and Neurodivergence with Sarah Mireles

Kate and Michelle are joined by Sarah Mireles for a conversation about DBT and neurodivergence. Each of them share their own lived experiences with neurodivergence at the beginning of the episode. Sarah shares what DBT and RO-DBT skills may be most helpful for neurodivergent individuals and how they can adapt DBT to work for them. She also provides suggestions for parents of neurodivergent teens, DBT group leaders, and partners/friends who love someone who is neurodivergent. Want to learn more about Sarah?
