I found some of the content to be outdated and ableist. The course came from a binary perspective rather than acknowledging twice exceptionalities. When I first attempted this course, I almost didn’t complete it because the ableism was so upsetting. However, I have appreciated Dabrowski’s Theory of Overexcitabilities for sometime, and wished to keep going. Despite how offensive parts of this course were, I give it three stars because there still was quality content on overexcitabilities that are few and far between in other trainings.
