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.
