What an incredible day at the inaugural PDA Conference Australia 2025! 💜

The Colour My World Therapy Services team was proud to attend - connecting with professionals, families and advocates all passionate about deepening understanding and support for individuals with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).

A special shoutout to our Clinical Director, Toni Tomlin, whose dedication and hard work played a key role in making this milestone event happen.

It’s so encouraging to see our neurodivergent community represented, celebrated and heard. Here’s to continued collaboration, compassion and neuroaffirming practice in action! 🌈✨

Have an NDIS appeal and feel unsure about what to expect? The newly public NDIS Appeals Database Project is here to help!

This database has been many years in the making. It started as a simple spreadsheet within our NDIS appeals team. Then law and IT students with the University of Queensland's Pro Bono Centre stepped up to turn our spreadsheet into a searchable online database available to the public.

We hope the database will help people understand what might be needed for their own appeals based on the outcomes of similar cases.

It will continue to be updated as appeal decisions become available and we’re sure it will become a valuable resource for many participants, their lawyers, advocates, or support networks.

Special thanks to UQ Pro Bono Centre students for all their hard work bringing this database to life.

Hormones influence every woman’s mood, energy, and wellbeing, but for neurodivergent women, the impact can be profound and life-altering.

- Puberty can magnify emotional dysregulation
- Menopause may unravel long-built coping strategies
- Conditions like PCOS are more common in autistic women, adding painful cycles, irregular hormones, and heightened mood symptoms

Despite this, the interaction between hormones and neurodivergence remains largely invisible in medical and psychological research. Too many women are left without the understanding, support, or treatment they need.

Recognising and addressing these blind spots is absolutely essential in having a healthcare system that finally takes women’s neurodivergent health seriously. Read more over on our blog - https://bit.ly/AGNhormones

Today is the very first AuDHD Day!

AuDHD is a non-medical term for people who are both autistic and have ADHD. While each are distinct diagnoses, its believed about 50-70% of autistic people also have ADHD.

Each AuDHDer has a unique mix of autistic and ADHD traits that can complement or contradict each other.

AuDHD Day is a community-led initiative to raise awareness of AuDHD, which is often missed and misunderstood.
