Our Services
Services for parents, families, and professionals.
At Neurodiversity Ireland, we offer neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed supports for neurodivergent children, young people, families, schools, and professionals. Our work is grounded in lived experience, occupational therapy practice, and a deep understanding of nervous system regulation. We focus on safety, connection, predictability, and autonomy rather than compliance or behaviour management. Many of our services are particularly supportive for individuals with a Persistent Drive for Autonomy (PDA) profile.

Sensory environment
“For a non-speaking child who cannot tell me, 'I love it here,' his sprint from the car to return to Neurodiversity Ireland the next day told me everything I needed to know!”
“This camp has raised so much positivity for our child's future. We have finally found a camp with high ratios and neurodivergent staff, where he has found 'his people' and feels truly understood!”
