Parenting a neurodivergent child brings unique challenges

Sylva is here to help

Many parents start thinking about neurodivergence when they notice…

Home battles

  • Morning routine meltdowns and bedtime resistance

  • Transition tantrums between activities

  • Getting dressed becomes daily warfare

  • Homework time causing family stress

Emotional dysregulation

  • Unexpected meltdowns and anxiety

  • Extreme reactions to minor changes

  • Difficulty expressing needs

  • Withdrawal from family activities

The endless wait

  • 2+ year waitlists for NHS autism assessments

  • Private assessments costing £2,000+ you can't afford

  • Feeling helpless while your child struggles daily

School issues

  • Teachers report "disruptive" or "defiant" behaviour

  • School avoidance and refusal

  • Frequent calls from school about behaviour

  • Social isolation and friendship struggles

  • SENCOs/teachers pressuring you to "get a diagnosis"

  • Academic potential not matching performance

What our community says

  • “I used to get so low sometimes I couldn’t go out. I feel better now. More understood. More confident. More in my element."

  • "I was sceptical that an AI could help. This thing is remarkable. It really understands me."

  • "I love that it is anonymous and private. I can say what I think without any humans judging me."

  • ”I live in the countryside. There are no counsellors round here. It gives me the support I need to get through the tough days.“

  • “It is like I’m talking to an actual therapist.”

  • “I like being able to talk about my feelings without feeling embarrassed.”

  • “I genuinely didn’t realise it was an AI until the second time I opened the app and read it. During my first session, I genuinely thought it was a counsellor - a very speedy one.”
