Dive into my blog for expert advice, tips, and stories that celebrate neurodiversity and empower families. From understanding sensory needs to navigating school systems, articles are designed to inform and inspire. Let’s grow together as we explore the beautiful spectrum of communication!
Does your child repeat full lines from shows, songs, or conversations? They may be a Gestalt Language Processor—a child who learns language in meaningful chunks rather than word-by-word. In this post, we explore what GLP is, why scripting is valid communication, and how to support your child’s natural language development.
Wondering why traditional speech therapy doesn’t feel quite right for your child? Neurodiversity-affirming therapy offers a more respectful, child-led approach that honors how your child naturally communicates—without forcing them to mask or perform. This post explores what makes it different and why it might be exactly what your family needs.
Autism often looks different in girls, and for many, that difference means being misunderstood or missed altogether. This post explores the quieter signs of autism in girls, why masking matters, and how early support begins with truly seeing your child for who they are.

Special interests aren’t just hobbies for autistic kids—they’re a powerful source of connection, confidence, and joy. In this post, we explore how passions can spark authentic friendships, and why honoring them is more supportive than trying to redirect them.
What if your child’s social “struggles” weren’t about a lack of empathy—but a mismatch in communication styles? This post introduces the Double Empathy Problem and why both autistic and neurotypical kids benefit from learning to understand each other.
