October 31, 2022 By Katherine Turner

Lin Lim, Ph.D.


This month, Barry sits down with our own board Director of Family Education, and SENG President, Lin Lim, Ph.D., a passionate whirlwind of complex ideas and observations that will have you scrambling to take notes! Among other things, they’ll discuss her most recent deep dive: “Seeing the trees AND the forest: holistic nurturance of gifted children.”
 
Lim is the Associate Dean of Media and Public Relations at Bridges Graduate School of Cognitive Diversity in Education in Studio City, California. She holds a doctorate in psychology from Boston University, Academic Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain and Education (Johns Hopkins University Graduate School of Education), and Academic Graduate Certificate in Twice-exceptional Education (Bridges Graduate School).
 
Her parenting journey with her two profoundly gifted children, one twice-exceptional, and the other radically accelerated, drives her to create better understanding, communication, and support for such children between all educational stakeholders. She is also a founding board member of the non-profit Gifted Education Family Network, and the founder of the non-profit Quark Collaboration Institute. She is currently focused on using data visualization techniques, and developing interdisciplinary dynamic complex multi-systems embodied guiding frameworks around parenting, education, and applied research with gifted outliers. She has presented both nationally and internationally in conferences ranging from education, interdisciplinary social science, to psychology.

S3, E4: Expert Series Interview with Bryan Mischler, LCSW.

March 29, 2022 By Katherine Turner


Bryan Mischler is a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist at the Treffert Center in Fond du Lac, Wi., a program of SSM Health. The Treffert Center is a facility dedicated to diagnosis, treatment, research and advocacy for the autistic community, with the focus of finding strengths and talents of the individual and scaffolding from these in developing areas in need of support. The center currently provides educational opportunities through the Treffert Way school for K- 8th grade. Bryan is developing programs to expand to high school, including technical school degrees and vocational skills.

Bryan has a true passion for carrying out this work. He has presented internationally and written about using strength based techniques to inspire those with which he works. Bryan was the recipient of the Professional of the Year award as a professional that does great things with children from the Wisconsin Counsel for Children and Families. He uses creative ways to find and develop a child’s talents. His motto: “Start with the Heart.” Find a child’s passion and help them develop these skills. His proudest professional achievement? Learning music and how to play guitar, because he was taught by several of his students, who used his own teaching philosophy to disabuse him of the notion that he had no musical ability!

Strengths-based learning techniques work for myriad neurotypes – there’s much to be gleaned from this session – so, come with questions!
