  • Co-occurring ADHD and the correlation of higher risk of eating disorders
  • Alexithymia and how it can relate to eating disorders and eating habits
  • Demand avoidance and how it is overlooked or not worked with in eating disorder treatment 
  • Providing compassion for underlying autistic traits, from providers to patients and from a patient to themselves
  • Ensuring neurodivergents are allowed sensory coping mechanisms
  • Invaluable advice for treatment providers; whether working with neurodivergent individuals or neurotypicals
  • A harrowing story of an eye-opening and sad experience of neurodivergent discrimination in a treatment center
