SUMMARY:When hormones meet neurodivergence - A story of sensitivity\, intensity and hormonal plot twists from puberty to menopause
DESCRIPTION:Hormonal shifts can feel more intense for many neurodivergent women. \nHormonal changes are often discussed in relation to puberty\, menstrual cycles\, perimenopause and menopause. Neurodivergence is often discussed in terms of cognition\, emotion\, sensory processing\, masking and navigating environments that were not designed for neurodivergent people. \nBut for many neurodivergent women\, these experiences are deeply interconnected. Hormonal changes can affect mood\, focus\, sleep\, sensory sensitivity\, emotional regulation and nervous system stability – the same areas that may already be more sensitive in neurodivergence. \nThis practical session will explore the hormonal life of neurodivergent women\, from puberty to menopause\, bringing together perspectives from clinical psychology and functional medicine. \nTogether\, we’ll explore why hormonal changes can feel amplified\, including: \n\nPhysical factors – hormone fluctuations\, brain chemistry\, nervous system regulation\, sleep\, sensory sensitivity\, stress physiology\, digestion and energy\nPsycho-social factors – late diagnosis\, masking\, identity\, emotional regulation\, self-understanding\, relationships\, work\, overwhelm and the impact of not knowing you were neurodivergent earlier in life\n\nWe’ll also look at what can help: \n\nUnderstanding personal patterns across hormonal phases and life stages\nSupporting emotional regulation\, self-compassion and communication\nReducing sensory\, cognitive and emotional load where possible\nSupporting sleep\, nourishment\, nervous system regulation and overall capacity\n\nThe session will combine accessible science\, clinical experience and practical strategies throughout\, while acknowledging the complexity and individuality of neurodivergent women’s experiences. Expect an integrated and neurodiversity-affirming discussion focused on making sense of patterns\, reducing shame and exploring supportive approaches across both the mind and body. \n  \nPresented by Sally Mounir and Scotti McLaren – in collaboration with Neurodiversity Belgium \nSally is a licensed psychotherapist and registered member of the International Council of Psychotherapists in the UK. Her work is shaped by a multicultural background and a strong commitment to creating a safe\, respectful and non-judgemental space for clients. She takes a personalised\, holistic approach\, supporting people to better understand themselves and build practical tools for emotional wellbeing\, self-trust and growth. \nScotti is a Geneva-based functional medicine practitioner with a clinical focus on neurodivergence and women’s hormonal health. Her academic and clinical training spans neuroscience\, psychology\, nutritional science\, personalised nutrition and functional medicine. Known for her investigative approach\, Scotti connects systemic and cellular insights with everyday experience\, helping make sense of complex patterns in women’s brain\, body and hormonal health.
