PDA From the Inside - Professional Training
What happens when everyday expectations feel overwhelming?
For many PDA individuals, what looks like avoidance, refusal, or defiance is often a response to feeling unsafe, overwhelmed, or lacking autonomy.
Our PDA From the Inside training helps professionals move beyond behaviour and understand the lived experience behind it.
During this 3-hour course, we explore: ✅ PDA as a profile within autism
✅ Demand sensitivity and perceived threat
✅ Anxiety, regulation and co-regulation
✅ Why traditional behaviour approaches can increase distress
✅ Practical strategies that build trust, safety and engagement
Ideal for teachers, SENCOs, support staff, therapists, social workers and healthcare professionals.
