CPD ACCREDITATION EXPIRING ON 14 AUGUST 2026

Conflict during the teenage years is often viewed as defiance, disrespect, or poor behaviour. In reality, adolescence is a period of profound neurological, hormonal, emotional, and social development. For teenagers with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and other neurodevelopmental differences, these changes can make communication, emotional regulation, and conflict even more challenging. Understanding what is happening beneath the behaviour is the key to responding effectively.

This comprehensive online course explores conflict through the lens of adolescent development, comparing typical teenage development with the unique experiences of teenagers with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia. You will gain a deeper understanding of how brain maturation, hormones, executive functioning, sensory processing, emotional regulation, language processing, and social cognition influence behaviour and contribute to misunderstandings, frustration, and conflict.

Rather than focusing solely on behaviour management, this course explains why teenagers react the way they do and how these responses differ across neurodevelopmental profiles. You will learn to recognise the biological and psychological factors driving conflict, distinguish between intentional behaviour and developmental differences, and identify practical strategies that reduce confrontation while strengthening communication and relationships.

Designed for parents, teachers, therapists, and anyone supporting adolescents, this course combines current research with practical, real-world strategies that can be implemented immediately at home, in schools, and in therapeutic settings. By understanding the unique challenges faced by both neurotypical and neurodivergent teenagers, you will be better equipped to navigate conflict with confidence, empathy, and lasting effectiveness.
