Is one or more of your kids on the Spectrum or have the ASD/ADD/OCD triad? In your relationship, is one of you on the spectrum and one not and is that causing misunderstandings and problems? Are you on the spectrum and having trouble understanding the non-spectrum people and world around you? I can help you bridge differences and deal with conflicts and meltdowns in an empathetic and constructive way. Also, I work for with LGBTQ people and couples with a variety of mental health concerns like anxiety and depression. It's hard growing up different from your peers. It can cause low self esteem, crippling self doubt and anger.
I have more than a decade or professional and personal experience (my two sons are on the spectrum) working with problems associated with having a neurodiverse family. I work with individuals and couples affected by ASD, ADD and OCD. I have been working for more than 2 decades with LGBTQ people.
