Clinical Review & Attestation

Clinically reviewed content Reviewed by a licensed clinical social worker for clinical accuracy and affirming, trauma-informed language.

The neurodivergence-related educational content published by ND Hive — our articles, frameworks, self-recognition quizzes, worksheets and workbooks, companion guides, and glossary — has been independently reviewed by a licensed clinician. We believe psychoeducation about ADHD, autism, and co-occurring neurodivergence should be held to a clinical standard, not just a marketing one. This page is our public record of that review.

Clinical Review Attestation

The following attestation was provided by Tara Neighbors, LCSW, LSATP, a licensed clinical social worker and licensed substance abuse treatment practitioner of Against All Odds Therapy LLC (Roanoke, VA).

I have reviewed the neurodivergence-related educational and psychoeducational content published by ND Hive, including its articles, frameworks, self-recognition quizzes, worksheets and workbooks, companion guides, and glossary. This attestation applies to that body of content as published as of the effective date below, and to subsequent content produced under the same editorial and clinical standards described below.

Attestation. Based on my professional training and clinical experience, I attest that this content:

  • is consistent with current, generally accepted understanding of ADHD, autism, and co-occurring neurodivergence in adults;
  • is presented in a manner that is neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed;
  • is clinically sound as general educational material; and
  • does not, in my review, contain guidance that I would consider clinically unsafe or contraindicated for a general adult audience.

Standards applied. Content was reviewed for clinical accuracy, affirming and non-stigmatizing language, and appropriate handling of sensitive topics (including burnout, emotional dysregulation, and mental health). Crisis-adjacent material was reviewed for appropriate framing and referral to professional support.

Limitations and disclaimers. This content is educational and psychoeducational in nature. It is not medical advice, psychotherapy, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for individualized care from a qualified professional. Reviewing this content does not create a therapist-client relationship between me and any reader. Individuals should consult a licensed clinician regarding their specific circumstances. This attestation reflects my professional opinion as of the effective date and does not transfer ownership of any content or intellectual property, which remains that of Danielle Ralston and ND Hive.

Ongoing review. I will review newly published content within these categories on an annual basis, or upon material change to existing content, to confirm continued alignment with the standards above.

I have reviewed the content published on the ND Hive website (ndhive.com), including its descriptions of neurodivergence, executive function, and the support and frameworks offered.

Attestation. In my professional judgment, this content:

  • is clinically sound, evidence-informed, and appropriate for a neurodivergent (ADHD, autistic, and AuDHD) audience; and
  • does not present itself as medical treatment, diagnosis, or a substitute for individualized clinical care, and includes appropriate framing where relevant.

Advisory role. I confirm that I serve as a clinical and organizational advisor to ND Hive, and I grant ND Hive permission to publicly reference my name, professional title, and credentials in connection with that role. The credentials and title stated below are current and accurately represent my qualifications.
