Led by leading Neurodiversity Specialists,
Irina Schurov & Olga Pavlova
If you are raising a child with autism, ADHD or other neurodevelopmental condition, your experience is atypical.
That’s why typical parenting books or advice from general professionals or other parents may not apply, which can lead to frustration and self-doubt.
You often need to do so much that it can become overwhelming.
You're juggling many responsibilities, running to numerous appointments, acting as an assistant manager, therapist, and more.
You help your child communicate, talk, and socialize while dealing with challenges you might not fully understand.
And when you seek advice and support, it's often something you've already tried and it didn't work.
It could come to a point when you feel burned out. You may become so tired that you cannot give enough time and attention to your family, which will inevitably affect every member.
So what can you do to help prevent or reduce burnout when you’re already stretched so thin?
You need to start by helping yourself instead of focusing solely on helping your children more.
In this fundamentals training, we will cover:
The basics of parental burnout: why it happens and how to stop it
The pyramid of balance for neurodiverse families
How and why to find time for self-care
Three simple but effective self-care strategies for parents
How to build a NeuroNurturing support network for the best outcomes for everyone
The mindset ingredients required for optimal parenting in neurodiverse families
Techniques for handling the challenges of raising children with autism and ADHD

Testimonials
“I can't thank Olga enough! I feel so much more in control of myself!
I had the most wonderful session with Olga. As a mother of a neurodiversity teen, life can be pretty hard. Especially when your husband is very old school and doesn't see his struggles. It can be a very lonely journey. Olga helped me see the parts of the missing puzzle within myself and since then I have noticed that people are reacting to me differently. In a much more respectful manner.

“I have followed a 3-months program of Dr Irina Schurov. I wanted to know if nutrition could help my son who has ADHD and to whom I didn't want to give medication (Ritalin).
The implementation of Irina's advice regarding food and supplements together with mindfulness for kids and lots of sport quickly produced AMAZING results in my son's control of emotions, general wellbeing, and his performance in school. He no longer needs psychotherapy sessions nor assistance in school which is AWESOME! The outcome from what we have learned with Irina, motivated all family to eat healthier. Tiny and simple changes had a huge positive impact on us.
Irina will help you to find out what works best for you and your family through questionnaires, different clinical tests, friendly regular meetings, and video phone calls. Irina is not only our nutritional counsellor but she’s also our friend who cheers all our personal achievements. Thanks, Irina!

Testimonials
“I’m a proud mother of a 4-year-old girl, who suddenly at around 19 months regressed from a totally active, social and verbal child into a non-verbal child on the autism spectrum.
She stopped talking, making any sort of eye contact, stopped pointing and wanting to socialize. We did everything we could and still couldn’t understand what the issue was.
Thankfully, we encountered Irina. That day for us has been truly life-changing. She has helped us as a family to start a holistic approach for battling the challenges relating to ASD. With Irina’s help, we could historically trace back to when everything started and what could have been the main factors for my daughter regression. We have incorporated many lifestyle changes and we continue to see my daughter progress day by day. I can finally hear my daughter call me “Mummy” from time to time and verbalize her needs more and more. We have days filled with laughter and so much more eye contact. She started to give us hugs. The girl who couldn’t stand next to or near another child now holds their hands at the creche.
I truly feel blessed and thankful to Irina for all the progress that my daughter has made in the past 1 year. I am hopeful about my daughter’s future again, thanks to Irina. I recommend her to any parent I meet, who are in a similar situation as us.”
-CYNITTA, mother of a 4-year-old child with ASD
“I wholeheartedly recommend Olga Pavlova as an exceptional autism advocate.
My experience with Olga Pavlova has been nothing short of transformative, both for myself and for my son. Olga Pavlova possesses a deep understanding of autism spectrum disorder, which is evident in her approach to advocacy. She combines personal experience with a wealth of knowledge to provide support, guidance, and education that is both empathetic and empowering. One of the most impressive aspects of Olga Pavlova's work is her ability to connect with individuals on the spectrum and their families. She listens intently, validates concerns, and works tirelessly to ensure that every voice is heard and respected. Her advocacy efforts have led to tangible improvements in areas such as education, workplace accommodation, and community inclusion.”
