Neurodivergence Affirming Therapy
For many neurodivergent people, the journey of self-discovery is not straightforward. Learning how to support your unique brain/body/nervous system is a life-changing process, & I would be happy to support you in that journey.
I am a neurodivergent provider; I was formally diagnosed with Autism in my early 30's.
Learning about Neurodivergence, specifically Autism, ADHD, and the high co-occurrence of these two neurotypes has been one of my special interests in the past five years.
I have experience supporting Autistic, AuDHD, ADHD (self-identified or formally diagnosed) people who are in the process of learning more about their neurotype and wanting to nourish skills and tools to support their unique brain & nervous system.
I also have experience supporting neurodivergent people struggling with:
Anxiety
Trauma
Depression
Self-esteem
Relationships
Life Transitions
Internalized ableism
Sensory Sensitivities
Neurodivergent burnout
Effective and assertive communication
The realization they are Autistic / AuDHD / ADHD
Living as a neurodivergent person in a neurotypical and ableist world
