About Me
I’m a neurodivergent mama, co-parenting with a neurodivergent partner, and supporting a neurodivergent child. With my background in psychology, education, behavior, and nutrition, along with my lived experience, I empower neurodiverse families through neuro-affirming, assent-based, child-centered, and compassionate care. I collaborate with parents to create a space where their neurodivergent children can thrive, free from the shame and burnout that often comes from a pathologizing, ableist system. I advocate for the beauty of neurodiversity while addressing the struggles and challenges our families face.
In addition to supporting families, I focus on holistic wellness. As someone who has navigated my own health concerns and co-parents a child with a neuroimmune condition, I’ve learned the power of foundational wellness to strengthen and protect against life's challenges. I believe food can be our medicine or our poison, and small, impactful changes to your wellness foundation can bring big, positive results. I’d love to work with you to find the balance that supports your unique journey toward health and wellness.

Current Credentials
I am acutely aware of the concerns and distrust of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) within the Autistic community due to its history and continuing abuse of autistic individuals. I have considered dropping my Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) credentials due to this controversy and my own struggles with the trauma caused by some of the common practices used in ABA. However, I have chosen to keep my BCBA credential to make a bigger impact by having discussions about the concerns within the field of ABA and amplifying the messages that empower neurodiverse families to trust their intuition and question anything that does not feel right.
