Navigating Support for Gifted and Twice Exceptional Children​

In this online conversation, School Psychologist Aurora Remember Holzman and Therapist Candice Guertin will guide parents of gifted and twice exceptional children on how to work with their child's counselor and school. The speakers will address the common feeling of isolation and misunderstanding among parents of gifted children and provide important questions to ask a potential therapist. They will also share resources for finding qualified clinicians and equip parents with the confidence to support their child's unique needs.
