Talk therapy isn't effective for a lot of people with neurodevelopmental disorders. Why is that? And what can we do about it to make it better?

(Disclaimer therapy may still work for you! Please don't use this video as justification to not even try! It's more of a "if it wasn't effective for you, you are not alone or weird" and a "what can the industry do to try and improve itself" than a "don't do therapy" thing)

Hello my dears!
My name is Sydney and I’m an actress/singersongwriter who writes music about my experiences being autistic, disabled, gay, and in general, a human. My goal is to fill musical gaps and write about things people often forget to make music about. I’m also a vintage enthusiast and disability advocate (among other things). I’ve now released 3 albums and, most importantly, my favorite color is buttercup yellow.
