I have honed my skills to focus more toward treatment and support of neurodivergent individuals. This passion developed due to my work in various agencies and educational systems where neurodivergent individuals were underserved due to lack of knowledge and a lack of understanding on how to support their individual needs. I myself rage against the “norms” of society and feel neurodivergent individuals are often faced with criticism for being different, too often bombarded with people pointing out deficits as opposed to the amazing benefits and strengths of seeing and approaching the world in a unique way.

Personally and professionally, I try to approach situations with an “optimistically realistic” lens - hope for the best and prepare for reality. It is important to acknowledge that life can present all manner of obstacles, many of which are unforeseen or feel beyond our control; however, by facing these challenges from a place of strength and optimism, rather than from a place of deficit, we are better prepared to address them.

We all reach points in our lives where we experience increased stress and vulnerability. Regardless of our age, circumstances, or experience, we can feel hopeless and disconnected from the world. This can lead to a number of issues including substance abuse, depression, anxiety, impulsivity and poor decision making, unsafe behaviors, and even suicidal thinking and behavior. We all deserve to feel good about ourselves, be connected to the people who care about us, have healthy relationships, and be pursuing meaningful life goals. With the proper support we're all capable of doing so.

Take back the reins in your life. For too long you have been pushing through, just trying to get from one day to the next. You drag yourself out of bed each day, trying to forget about last night’s nightmares or the memories that haunt you. It's a constant battle against the worry that tells you something terrible is about to happen, leaving you fighting just to get through your daily tasks. In a room full of people, you still feel entirely alone, lost in your own thoughts. It's exhausting, constantly pretending that everything is okay. Yet you still put on that brave face and keep going.

Life comes with many challenges and obstacles that may seem impossible to overcome. We all have an innate need to succeed and prove ourselves as worthy and deserving of good. There may be times when we feel overwhelmed, self-conscious, or inadequate and we don't want to be a burden to others, so we don't ask for help. It's at these times when we need that support most. The truth is, we all face these challenges and with some self-reflection, mental energy, and focus, we can overcome those barriers and develop skills to help ourselves that become second nature.
