Acceptance, Autonomy, and Authenticity Practitioner

​

I've always been passionate about supporting others and understanding what people experience that leads them to do things. This passion grew after I began to explore the work of Dr Dan Siegal, Dr Ross Greene, Mona Delahooke, Alfie Kohn, and so many more. My focus then narrowed to the neurodivergent community after discovering my own neurotype as Autistic and ADHD. I love being able to work from a neurodivergent-affirming and trauma informed lens to help families and support people understand a person differently and work towards providing the person with what they truly need to feel safe and live their life the way they want to live it. I have a keen interest in neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology and also love being able to use this in my work.

​Now, I have completed some of the training available from Dr Ross Greene, have a Graduate Certificate in Autism Studies, and am currently completing my Masters Degree in Autism. I am also one of the two directors of Instinct Au and have an amazingly brilliant autistic little boy.
