Divergent Voices
Divergent Voices is created by Clinical Partners as part of autism unlocked - a dedicated space for autistic people and their families to receive expert advice and guidance on a range of issues. Hear personal stories and life hacks from autistic individuals and practical strategies from expert clinicians, that aim to help manage daily challenges. We want to make it easier for autistic people and their families and carers to access the best support available, and we believe this starts with helpful advice and guidance from a reliable and trusted source. In the Divergent Voices series we explore autistic mental health, home adaptations, autism & ADHD, sensory sensitivities, emotions, career advice, sleep, autistic joy and more. On this channel we will also share tips and strategies for families with autistic children, such as insights on school anxiety, eating, ADHD and autism, recognising strengths, and home and school adaptations.
