You identify as neurodivergent and are looking to feel supported and understood. You want to build new strategies for coping with everyday life. You might have a an autistic or neurodivergent child whom you want to feel more themselves, supported, and self-expressed. You might be wondering "where can I feel like myself?", or "what do I really want out of life?". I help adults, children, and youth find authentic expression, get more of what they want out of life, understand their challenges and societal context, and find creative responses to their life circumstances to feel more empowered, self-defined, and able to self-advocate.
I support people who have felt held back in life or impeded by personal circumstances, societal factors, positionality, and / or historical / familial context. I help you to feel like the author of your own life, make choices or changes that are right for you, learn to self-advocate and self-express, and develop healthy strategies for your life.
If you're wanting a change, I would love to support you in understanding what has kept you stuck, taking a creative look at your own life, and visioning for the life you want, in a caring, playful, and gentle environment. I provide free 20-minute consults to anyone who would like to talk more about what our work might look like.
