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.

Ever wonder why your child seems to “hold it together” all day at school, only to melt down the moment they get home?

Licensed Psychologist Coral explains that this is often a result of overstimulation; from noise, bright lights, social interactions, and constant expectations.

When children finally reach a safe space at home, all that pent-up energy and emotion can overflow.

Try:
✨ Creating a calm, safe space to unwind
✨ Offering movement breaks or quiet time
✨ Using noise-cancelling headphones
✨ Gentle conversation once they’ve settled

Every behaviour tells a story and at home, they finally feel safe enough to let it out.

Myths About Bilingualism - do you know the facts?

❌ Myth: “Two languages will confuse my child.”
💡 Fact: Children are amazing language learners!

This is a common assumption but mixing words between languages is completely normal and it’s a sign your child is learning how both language systems work.

Encouraging both languages supports stronger communication, cultural connection, and cognitive flexibility.

🎭 Masking Mini-Series | Part 1 with Dr Sarah Daly Butz

What is masking?

In this first part of our mini-series, Dr Sarah Daly Butz explains what masking means and shares real-life examples of how children, young people and adults might hide or change parts of themselves to fit in.

Masking can look like copying social cues, forcing eye contact, or suppressing stimming, often to avoid standing out or being judged. But over time, it can be exhausting and impact mental health and wellbeing.

Understanding masking is the first step toward supporting neurodivergent children with compassion and acceptance.
