FEATURED WORKSHOP - Introducing Empowerment-Based Integrated Treatment (EBiT)
ST. PETERSBURG, FL AND TAMPA, FL / ACCESS Newswire / July 2, 2025 / On Sunday, September 7, 2025, attendees of Wellness & Wonder: An Afternoon of Art, Healing, and Empowerment will have the rare opportunity to explore the next evolution of mental health care for autistic and neurodivergent individuals through an in-depth workshop titled:
Introducing Empowerment-Based Integrated Treatment (EBiT): A New Model of Care
Developed by Dr. Angela Fisher, founder of Bionic Bloom and the Neurodivergent Empowerment Institute (NEI), EBiT offers an alternative to traditional behavioral interventions like ABA, shifting the focus from compliance and correction to autonomy, embodiment, and celebration of difference.
This live workshop will break down:
The core philosophy of EBiT: Validate, Accept, Nurture
Its multimodal framework, which includes expressive arts, somatic therapy, sensory integration, psychoeducation, and oxytocin-informed care
Real-life outcomes from NEI's clinical trials and IOP programs
Why EBiT is especially effective for individuals with co-occurring ADHD, OCD, trauma, and alexithymia
How parents, educators, clinicians, and clients can begin implementing EBiT principles today
"EBiT is about honoring the full human experience," said Dr. Fisher. "We move away from pathologizing difference and toward creating environments where neurodivergent people can regulate, connect, and thrive on their own terms."
The session is open to:
Mental health professionals and educators
Neurodivergent individuals and their families
Advocates, policymakers, and wellness providers seeking innovative, inclusive solutions
Attendees will also get a first look at EBiT's practitioner training, available through Sacred Bloom College of Healing Arts, and hear about upcoming certification opportunities.
This workshop is just one of many experiences offered during Wellness & Wonder, including live music, reiki, breathwork, art auctions, and immersive wellness stations-culminating in the grand opening of the Neurodivergent Empowerment Institute, the nation's first comprehensive neurodivergent-focused healing center.
