At TheraThrive, we specialize in neurodiversity, which includes giftedness and twice exceptionality. Our business founder, Dr. Grace Malonai, has lived in the world of neurodiverence, twice exceptionality, with giftedness, autism and ADHD her entire life; she has studied these, and has conducted research on gifted parents (Gifted Identity Project).<\/p>\n
We understand the quirky natures, the immense talent, and the many challenges associated with giftedness. Let us help you become more at ease with your gifted traits, including high sensitivity,\u00a0\u00a0overexcitabilities and 2e issues (twice exceptional), whether you are a gifted adult who needs support and understanding, a parent seeking help, or just curious for more information.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Gifted people often have a deep, inner need to make a difference. This need is so deep and so large that it can take over one\u2019s thoughts, shape one\u2019s values, and create a drive that does not quit. Gifted people also tend to feel intensely\u2014so intensely that they can get lost in their feelings, or delve so deep into particular sensations that it is hard to see something else, the larger picture. This intensity can be both wonderful and extremely painful.\u00a0 Likewise, perfectionism is a trait commonly associated with giftedness.<\/p>\n

Counseling that is specifically designed for neurodivergent people, including gifted, exceptionally bright and twice exceptional children, teens or adults can be a bit different than typical counseling because the foundations beneath the problems are different.<\/p>\n

Gifted and twice exceptional children, teens and adults often mask, which means they hold back or change how they appear to others in order to better fit in at school or social situations. This might not even a conscious decision, because it can be an adaptive instinct, an unconsciously crafted tool for the purpose of getting along easier in a world where you feel different. Gifted people sometimes do this so well, or for so long, that they no longer believe they are smart, and they don\u2019t feel smart.<\/p>\n

Imagine feeling that special, competent feeling that comes with understanding and meeting the needs of your gifted child or teen\u2014or yourself! When we work with gifted children, teens and adults, we are careful not to make assumptions about people just because they are gifted. We see our role as working collaboratively with you, so that together we come to understand underlying problems, and explore potential needed tools, skills and solutions. Once identified, we practice these in a safe and caring environment. For children, therapy usually involves play, art, or music for processing emotions, which can help them learn to\u00a0identify and express feelings in meaningful, healthy and safe ways. The guidance and supportive environment we provide is ideal for learning positive coping skills. Gifted teens and adults find counseling to be a safe and accepting place for self-expression, being real, and to learn and practice self-management techniques, communication and social skills, or whatever else is needed. Allow yourself the opportunity to talk openly with a well-informed, supportive, experienced counselor who really\u00a0<\/span>gets<\/em>\u00a0<\/span>gifted. Working with gifted families is our passion, and we would love to work with you!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Gifted children and adults sometimes take their perfectionist ideals to a level that is so high, it might be impossible to attain. That is how come gifted people tend to be so hard on themselves (and perhaps they can be hard on others as well). In general, gifted people of all ages, can be incredibly insightful, and benefit greatly from a counselor who understands giftedness, and who strives to understand them for who they are. Everyone deserves to thrive.
