    A Clinical Approach to Working with Clients in Burnout 

    About This Training

    • Designed for Neurodivergent-affirming therapists seeking to better understand Autistic burnout, this toolkit brings together a core training on Autistic burnout with a comprehensive, client-friendly workbook.

      You’ll walk away with clear frameworks, practical language, and ready-to-use tools to support your clients in navigating burnout — and a deeper understanding of how burnout connects to identity, mental health, and lived experience.

    Training Overview

    What You'll Learn

    By the end of this training, you will be able to:

    • Identify the core features and common contributors to autistic burnout and differentiate it from depression and general burnout.
    • Describe how masking, sensory overload, and unmet support needs contribute to the development of autistic burnout.
    • Apply neurodivergent-affirming strategies to support recovery from burnout in autistic clients, including harm-reduction and self-attunement practices.
    • Articulate how awareness of Autistic burnout can serve as a suicide prevention strategy, particularly in populations that are frequently misdiagnosed or overlooked.

    What's Included

    • 1-hour on-demand training.
    • The Autistic Burnout Workbook and Toolkit, with licensing rights to give to clients.
    • 6 downloadable resources that can be used with clients.
    • Slide deck PDFs with NDI’s signature high-visual design.
    • Written transcripts for accessibility and easy reference.
    • Accredited for 1 CPD hour with a CPD Certificate of Completion.

    Intended Audience

    This training is ideal for:

    • Psychologists, therapists, and social workers in private practice or agency settings.
    • Clinicians working with adults navigating complex clinical presentations.
    • Professionals seeking a more neurodiversity-affirming, identity-centered approach to care.
    • While this is a clinical training designed for providers, late-identified or self-questioning neurodivergent adults have also found this training meaningful.

    Course Level

    This training would be considered an intermediate level. It is ideal for clinicians with a general background in mental health who are newer to adult autism identification or seeking to build more confidence in applying diagnostic criteria with nuance.
