Whether you are a parent or educator, this engaging and practical presentation with renowned psychologist Dr. Matthew Zakreski (“Dr. Matt”) will provide valuable insights into supporting neurodivergent children, including gifted, ADHD, autistic, and dyslexic learners. With a unique blend of humor, compassion, brain science, and real-world experience, Dr. Matt helps adults better understand how differently wired children experience the world—and how we can help them thrive. Attendees will leave with a deeper appreciation for neurodiversity as well as concrete, strengths-based strategies they can immediately apply at home, in the classroom, and in their communities. Known for his dynamic speaking style and ability to make complex ideas accessible, Dr. Matt has delivered more than 500 presentations worldwide and is one of the most respected voices in gifted and neurodivergent education today.
This presentation is ideal for parents, teachers, school leaders, counselors, and anyone who wants to better support the social, emotional, and academic success of neurodivergent young people.
