Episode Synopsis


In this insightful episode, Bec from Rural Child Health sits down with psychologist Emma Richards, who brings not only professional expertise but lived experience as a parent of neurodivergent children.
Together, they explore how families can move beyond the traditional therapy room to create calmer, more connected homes. Emma shares her passion for supporting the entire family unit, not just the child in isolation, and offers practical advice for parents who often feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unheard by the healthcare system. Whether you're raising a child with ADHD, autism, giftedness, or other neurodivergent traits, this conversation offers comfort, clarity, and most of all—hope.
