  • 21: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation - Treatment for ADHD, ASD & More - Interview w/ Gregg Pauletti of NeuroSynchrony Health
    Jul 9 2025

    This week on The Neurodivergent Report, Sarah sits down with Gregg Pauletti from NeuroSynchrony Health, a clinic using EEG brain scans and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to support neurodivergent individuals... especially those navigating ADHD, autism, and related cognitive challenges.

    Together, they explore the future of mental health care— one grounded in neuroscience, compassion, and individualized treatment.

    Curious what’s inside:

    • How TMS works and what it actually feels like

    • What EEG brain maps reveal about executive function, attention, and impulsivity

    • Why treatment for neurodivergent folks must be personalized— not standardized

    If you’ve been wondering whether TMS might be a good fit, or are just curious about how brain-based therapies are evolving, this episode is for you. 🧠💡

  • 20: Measuring Neurodivergence: What Epidemiology & Social Research Can & Can't Tell Us
    Jul 4 2025

    Why is ADHD is so hard to define & diagnose? This episode breaks down the science, the bias, and the media noise surrounding ADHD and neurodivergence.

    This week on The Neurodivergent Report, we brought an Epidemiologist to teach us how to measure stuff like ADHD/ASD, what current research narratives gets wrong (and right), and why neurodivergent communities need better representation.

    Curious what’s inside:

    • Epidemiology 101 (abridged)

    • Social Research 101 (abridged)

    • Media as a socialization tool
