Why this training matters
Why understanding aphantasia and related conditions is vital.
- Neurodivergent students and clients are often misdiagnosed or misunderstood.
- Individuals with aphantasia, SDAM, anendophasia, anauralia and alexithymia can experience barriers to support for emotional wellbeing, memory, communication and mental health.
