A live, one-hour free Zoom webinar + Q&A Tuesday 21 July 2026

Join former SPELD NZ student Katie Fisher – now a children’s author and illustrator.  She is passionate about helping parents, whānau, children and young people.

Katie lives with what she describes as “The Triple Threat”:  Dysgraphia, dyscalculia and ADHD.  In this insightful webinar, Katie will share her journey from a highly anxious child into a resilient adult and the toolkit she has used along the way.

Katie recently completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Creative Practice and is also excited to share her thoughts on the link between creativity and neurodiversity.

Ideal for:

Parents, whānau, neurodivergent teens and adults, educators and anyone wanting a deeper understanding of the emotional impact and hidden challenges of neurodivergence – especially dysgraphia, dyscalculia and ADHD.

Insights:

From emotional regulation to confidence, behaviour and relationships, Katie will unpack some of the often-overlooked challenges faced by neurodivergent children and young people.

Katie will share the practical strategies that have helped her build her day-to-day life skills and emotional resilience.
