Director & Developmental Educator - she/they

I am a late-discovered Autistic ADHDer and have over 8 years’ experience as a support worker, social group facilitator and Allied Health Assistant. I’ve recently qualified as a Developmental Educator and I’m passionate about neurodiversity, wellbeing, community, and supporting neurokin 🌈🧠

My strengths in practice are neurodivergent, particularly Autistic, identity exploration, emotional regulation support, sensory regulation support, communication and self-advocacy skill building. Note that in circumstances where your needs might better fit another support person, I will refer to other professionals.

I’m interested in many arts and crafts and particularly love crochet, dancing and making zines. I also have a passion for mental health, psychology and neuroscience, as well as an interest in animal behaviour, plants and nature, music and true crime.

I have 3 cats that I adore; Teddy, Gerry and Milo
