Description
Many twice-exceptional young men face difficult issues including challenges with identity development, stress and frustration that impacts self-esteem, difficulties with peer relationships, a need to understand the twice-exceptional diagnosis, and living with a learning disability. This session presents a discussion of these issues through an interactive dialogue with a high achieving twice-exceptional male who overcame challenges and met success in college and in his professional life. Implications for counseling twice-exceptional males and effective strategies for teaching them are presented. Participants receive a bibliography of resources to support twice-exceptional males.
