I have had over 20 years of first hand experience working with neurodivergent clients specifically ASD. I help clients not only discover how the diagnosis may providing certain challenges, but also to understand how use the diagnosis in helping them become the best version of themselves in certain areas of life they may be even more successful in compared to neurotypical clients.
I often evaluate children with Autism and help parents go through the acceptance period of having a child with ASD. I help parents find strategies to manage the child's behaviors.
