2026
I am an autism specialist and practitioner working with autistic children and their families, with a strong focus on understanding each child’s individual strengths, communication style, and developmental needs. As an autistic professional myself, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my work, informing my commitment to respectful, neurodiversity-affirming practice.
Throughout my career, I have supported children with diverse developmental profiles, focusing on communication, learning, play, social development, emotional regulation, and autonomy. My approach is child-centred and strengths-based, recognising that autistic children may communicate and demonstrate their abilities in ways that differ from conventional expectations.
My work emphasises creating supportive environments in which children feel understood, respected, and able to develop their strengths. I am particularly interested in meaningful communication, autonomy, inclusive learning, and recognising abilities that may otherwise be overlooked.
Through my clinical and educational work, I aim to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of autism and to promote practices that value autistic children as individuals, while recognising both their support needs and their strengths.
