Identity-Affirming EF Strategies for Neurodivergent LGBT+ Clients
Speaker: Kim Tran M.S, ET/P
For LGBTQIA+ neurodivergent clients, access to executive function support is deeply shaped by systemic and social factors, making it an important equity issue. This presentation examines how intersectionality shapes executive functioning, how systemic oppression creates barriers to support, and the unique EF experiences of neurodivergent LGBTQIA+ clients. Through a decolonial lens, we’ll explore insights and strategies for providing affirming, identity-centered support that empowers clients to live in their authenticity.
Kim Tran brings over a decade of clinical experience in educational therapy, executive function coaching, and educational consulting, combined with formal education and training in business management, educational technology, educational therapy, executive functioning, language organization, and study skills strategies. She draws deeply from lived experience, offering insights from sitting at the intersection of multiple identities, including being a first-generation college graduate, the child of immigrants, an Asian American, and a member of the queer community. Her work is rooted in authenticity-centered, culturally competent practices designed to foster meaningful and sustainable learning support
