I have loved all of your resources to date & can't wait to explore the PDA toolkit.
One of the best and most comprehensive neuroaffirming PDA resources I’ve come across. I’ve honestly struggled to find PDA information in one clear place — this brings it together in a way that’s practical, thoughtful, and usable, with case examples that actually make sense in real settings. What I really appreciate is how it values both professional expertise and lived experience — Sarah’s depth of knowledge and care is evident throughout.
Everyone needs a copy of the book 'A story about my brain' — it is simple and makes so much sense. My kids both recognised their brains in this story.
