How it works

Support for Every PDA Moment

From crisis to daily life - get the help you need, when you need it

Quick Crisis Support

Your child is melting down. You're overwhelmed. You need help right now.

Tap a crisis button and get immediate:

  • Understanding of what's happening in their nervous system
  • Scripts you can use in the next 30 seconds
  • Calming strategies that actually work for PDA

No searching. No reading articles. Just fast, practical support for the hardest moments.

Emergency Scripts

See exactly what to say for 40+ common PDA triggers:

  • Morning routines and getting out the door
  • Homework and school transitions
  • Hygiene and self-care tasks
  • Bedtime and sleep struggles
  • Sibling conflicts and sharing
  • Technology limits and screen time

Each script shows low-demand language that reduces anxiety instead of escalating it. Organized by severity so you can find exactly what you need.

Deep Understanding

Learn what's actually happening when your child says no.

Get PhD-level explanations of:

  • Nervous system activation and threat responses
  • Why equalizing behavior isn't manipulation
  • How demand avoidance protects autonomy
  • What "felt safety" really means
  • Why masking is so exhausting

Understand the why so you can respond with compassion instead of frustration.

Visual Explanations

Sometimes you need to show others what PDA looks like.

Generate therapeutic visual metaphors:

  • Volcano imagery for explosive regulation
  • Battery levels for energy and capacity
  • Weather systems for emotional states
  • Container metaphors for overwhelm

Perfect for sharing with teachers, therapists, family members, or your child themselves.

Sibling Support

Your PDA child isn't the only one struggling.

Get guidance for:

  • Explaining PDA to siblings in age-appropriate ways
  • Handling sibling resentment and "unfair" treatment
  • Supporting non-PDA children's needs
  • Building sibling connection despite PDA challenges

Help your whole family thrive, not just survive.

Regulation Tracking

Notice patterns. Celebrate progress. Share insights with professionals.

Track your child's regulation over time and see:

  • Which strategies work best
  • What times of day are hardest
  • How regulation changes week to week
  • Concrete data for therapy and school meetings

Turn daily struggles into actionable insights.
