Resilient Caregiving for Neurodivergent Children is a supportive, neuroaffirming, and practical guide that helps caregivers protect their own wellbeing while managing the emotional and day-to-day challenges of raising a neurodivergent child.

Grounded in evidence-based practices, this invaluable guide blends strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as real-life stories and clinical experience. Unlike many parenting resources that focus primarily on the child, this book puts the caregiver’s emotional health at the center of family wellbeing. Parents, caregivers, and guardians will learn how to make space for difficult emotions such as shame and guilt, ease their overwhelm, and reconnect with their values while building sustainable self-care habits. Chapters include reflective exercises, illustrative case stories, sample scripts, as well as key takeaways to help readers find strength and build emotional resilience at different stages of their caregiving journey. This book offers essential resources to help caregivers prevent burnout and help their child – and themselves – thrive.

Combining therapeutic tools with a lived understanding of neurodiversity, this book provides compassionate approaches to care and self-care for parents, guardians, and professionals alike.

Danielle L. Terry, PhD, ABPP, is an author, researcher, professor, and clinician. She is the founder of NeuroKind Consulting (neurokindconsulting.com). Her work is grounded in both expertise and experience, informed by her role as caregiver to a neurodivergent child and her commitment to advancing compassionate, practical approaches to behavioral health. Katherine T. Fortenberry, PhD, is a clinical professor at the University of Utah and the director of behavioral health education for its Family Medicine Residency. She is an educator, researcher, and clinician whose work centers on integrating mental health into primary care. Her professional expertise is shaped by lived experience; as a caregiver to a neurodivergent child, she brings both personal insight and a commitment to compassionate, practical approaches to supporting family wellbeing.
