Ep 20: NeuroDiversity with Sari Solden

In this deeply moving episode of Death Demystified with Dr. Deerheart, psychotherapist and neurodiversity advocate Sari Solden, MS, joins Andrea to explore an often-overlooked frontier in end-of-life care — how we can honor, comfort, and support neurodiverse individuals as they approach the final chapter of life.Together, they dive into what neurodiversity truly means — the unique ways brains and beings experience the world — and how that understanding should shape the way we listen, touch, communicate, and accompany the dying. With tenderness and insight, Dr. Deerheart and Sari discuss practices that ease anxiety, build safety, and affirm dignity for those whose minds may process, feel, and perceive differently. This is a conversation about belonging until the very last breath — and the grace of meeting every soul exactly where they are.  A must-listen for end-of-life practitioners, doulas, caregivers, and anyone seeking to deepen compassion in the face of difference.
