Hey guys, hey! Happy Wednesday! I know I’m a tad late, but life happens, right? Just got back from vacation, and the flu decided to come home with me—yay me! Tried to pass the mic to my son, Z, but he chickened out. So here I am, flu-riddled and under the weather, bringing you this week’s episode!
This week, I’m so excited to welcome Tanya Hallett to Adulting with Autism! Tanya’s a trauma-informed practice specialist with 20 years of international experience. She’s also a PTSD survivor and mental health advocate who’s here to break down what PTSD actually means—because let’s face it, people throw that term around without really knowing the deal.
We’re diving into the nitty-gritty:
- What is PTSD, really?
- How do you find the right therapist when you’re struggling?
- And what’s up with Lego therapy? (Spoiler: it’s way more than playing with blocks—it’s about connection and creativity!)
This episode is perfect for anyone navigating the wild ride of mental health, especially if you’re autistic or neurodivergent. Tanya drops wisdom bombs about finding support, tackling anxiety, and stepping out of your comfort zone.
So, grab a blanket, snuggle up, and let’s get real about mental health and the journey to adulthood. Let’s dive in! 🎙️
