🎄 Using Elf on the Shelf to Boost Speech & Language! 🎄

Today our Speech & Language Therapist, Geraldine Rowell, shows us how to turn festive fun into meaningful language-building moments.

A simple tip: hide the elf and encourage your child to find them using descriptive words like “under,” “inside,” “behind,” “next to,” or “on top.”

These positional words help children:

⛄️ Build spatial awareness

⛄️ Develop receptive language (understanding instructions)

⛄️ Expand expressive language by describing what they see

⛄️ Strengthen attention, prediction, and problem-solving
all while keeping the magic of the season alive.

Playful. Simple. Evidence-based. Exactly how learning should feel.

Fun

Introducing Our Neuroaffirmative Elf on the Shelf Series!

At Insights Psychology, we know that festive traditions can be magical; but they can also be overwhelming for many neurodivergent children.

That’s why, over the next few weeks, we’re sharing a neuroaffirmative Elf on the Shelf series designed to make the season feel predictable, inclusive and genuinely fun for every family.

We’ll be offering gentle psychology-led ideas, reframes and alternatives that keep the magic alive without the stress, surprises or behavioural pressure often tied to the classic elf setup.

Whether you celebrate with an elf every year or you’re trying it for the first time, we’re here to help you shape a version that truly works for your child. 🎄

Follow along for supportive tips, inclusive setups and festive inspiration.

💛 A warm welcome and a big smile

Masking Series | Part 3

In this reel, Dr Sarah Daly Butz explores what happens after prolonged masking:

😞 Exhaustion
⏰ Delayed recognition of support needs
🔥 Burnout
😰 Anxiety
🌧️ Low mood

Masking can help people “fit in,” but over time it often comes at a huge emotional and physical cost.

Work hacks that actually help with ADHD!

If you’re neurodivergent, traditional productivity tips might not always work and that’s okay.

Here are a few ADHD-friendly strategies to make work feel more manageable:

💬 Use body doubling for focus
⏱️ Try the Pomodoro timer method
🗒️ Externalise thoughts instead of relying on memory
🌿 Build transitions between tasks
✅ Break projects into micro-steps

At Insights Psychology, we offer therapy that supports, not reshapes, neurodivergent identity.

You don’t need to change who you are to thrive.

In part 2 of our Masking Series, Dr. Sarah Daly-Butz, Clinical Psychologist at Insights, explains the four categories of masking often seen in neurodivergent individuals:

1️⃣ Social Masking: Imitating others to fit in or avoid standing out.

2️⃣ Cognitive Masking: Hiding processing differences or using mental effort to keep up.

3️⃣ Behavioural Masking: Suppressing natural movements, stims, or routines.

4️⃣ Emotional Masking: Concealing true feelings to appear calm, happy, or “fine.”

Masking can be exhausting; over time it may lead to burnout, anxiety, or loss of self-identity. Understanding these categories is the first step toward greater compassion and support.

Different brains, different strengths.

Neurodiversity is a natural and valuable part of human variation.

It includes a range of ways the brain can think, learn, and experience the world, each with its own strengths and challenges.

🧩 Autism – deep focus, creativity and unique views

⚡ ADHD – high energy, adaptability, and quick thinking

🔤 Dyslexia – problem-solving and big-picture creativity

💭 Intellectual Disability - empathy, resilience and unique insight

💬 Tic Disorders – resilience and self-awareness through lived experience

At Insights Psychology, we celebrate neurodiversity and offer therapy that supports, not reshapes, individual identity.

Because every mind deserves understanding, respect, and the right environment to thrive.
