I specialize in working with parents who are looking for support in the following ways:

• Understanding Burnout: I help you recognize signs of burnout, and understand how it impacts your child, and I work with you to set realistic expectations for their recovery.

• Creating a Low-Demand Environment: Reducing daily stressors, and addressing sensory overload that is unique to your child is one of the most effective things we can do to support recovery, but also one of the hardest for us as parents to put into practice. I help you unpack your child’s burnout triggers and give you strategies that will allow you to create an environment for healing.

• Supporting Emotional and Sensory Needs: Sensory and emotional regulation can be very challenging for parents to navigate.  I assist you with support and strategies for managing your child’s emotions and handling sensory sensitivities in a neuro-affirming and trauma-informed way.

• Managing Transitions: Burnout creates a lot of change for your child, you and your priorities. I guide you as your child moves through transitions, such as moving from one stage of recovery to another, and deciding if returning to school is the right thing for your child while helping them to gradually grow their capacity.  

• Preventing Future Burnouts: As a neurodivergent person, your child is always vulnerable to burnout throughout their lifespan. I support you with identifying early warning signs and building strategies for long-term well-being and energy management.

• Empathy and Emotional Support for You: Navigating burnout is one of the toughest parent experiences. The pressure and responsibility that falls on you can seriously put your own mental and physical well-being at risk. I provide a safe space where you can ask questions and process your thoughts, feelings, and grief with someone who understands your journey. I help you to stabilise your nervous system through the use of EFT tapping and havening and ease some of the isolation you feel so you can heal and process the trauma of this experience.

• Aligning Parenting Approaches: Parenting neurodivergent children and teens through burnout is extraordinarily hard for the relationship you have with your significant other.  It is normal for there to be disagreements and differences in the way co-parents navigate this. I work with couples to assist you and your partner in being on the same page so you can support your child effectively.

• Planning for the Future: The child and life we go into burnout with is not the child or life we have when we come out of burnout. It can feel really overwhelming when you let go of the old ‘plan’ and are faced with uncertainty for the future. No matter your family situation I hold space for you as you figure out a new ‘plan’ for yourself and your family as you move forward.

Every neurodivergent child and family is different and has different support needs.

My support for neurodivergent individuals and families acknowledges their unique needs. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach; instead, I prioritize listening to my clients and providing tailored support that aligns with their preferences and family dynamics.

I offer empathetic, trauma-informed guidance and practical skills to help you feel safe, seen, heard, and understood.
