Abstract
This Capstone research project focuses on neurodiversity-affirming care and its application to neurodivergent children as they access play therapies. I discuss a variety of play therapy models and how each of them works through a neuro-affirmative lens. Finally, I do a deep dive into synergetic play therapy, its tenets and what makes it the best fit for practitioners and parents looking for a neuro affirmative therapy for their neurodivergent child.
