This lived experience-led critique of Wade and Waller�s (2025) proposed CBT competences highlights significant concerns around iatrogenic harm and epistemic injustice due to a neuronormative, clinician-centric approach. The authors advocate for neurodiversity-affirming, identity-and trauma-informed adaptations that prioritise safety, consent, and co-produced, flexible care. Integrating these principles into CBT frameworks can foster more ethical, inclusive, and effective therapeutic practice for Neurodivergent individuals.
