In short, I think you're pretty rad!

"Your advice for me personally, was in short, pretty revolutionary,
and you've given me both food for thought and the impetus to make some important changes. In short, I think you're pretty rad! 😀"

Kate is essential for any neurodivergent individual who desires to know themselves better

"Kate has helped me to know myself in a deeper way and not just how to overcome my differences, but also how to walk in harmony with them. One of the many splendid things about Kate is that she does not try and change you to be someone who you are not, but rather values you for the amazing person that you are. Kate is essential for any neurodivergent individual who desires to know themselves better, learn some brilliant strategies that help and have a fun, meaningful time".

Kate has been non-judgmental in her approach and has presented some outstanding professional learning to staff

"Since working with Kate I have developed a new approach to my students with more knowledge, awareness and insight into children who present with more complex profiles. I have challenged my own beliefs and perceptions, and now have a far more discerning approach to enabled me to, not only make different considerations for learning, but also for students who are "masking", struggling with anxiety, and present as PDA or RSD. Kate has been non-judgmental in her approach and has presented some outstanding professional learning to staff".

Janet Coomber, Head of Campus - Two Wells

A deep sense of understanding and compassion for ourselves and each other

"I would describe Kate as a gently bubbling spring of infinite knowledge and resources. Sessions with her prompt me to re-examine my own ideas, and really see the world through my child's own unique perspective.

Kate helps me to find practical and flexible ways that work for the whole family to make our home a calmer and happier place.

Kate has really helped me to view my child (and myself!) from an entirely different lens which has provided us with such a deep sense of understanding and compassion for ourselves and each other as we navigate life. "

Mum of 7 yr old AuDHD PDAer

Affirmation, understanding and helpful ways forward

"We have been working with Kate for some years now and talking with her never fails to bring affirmation, understanding and helpful ways forward.

Kate not only has a huge bank of knowledge in the areas of giftedness and neurodiversity but has years of experience of living the life of neurodivergence. Thank you for all that you do, Kate!"

You are the first professional that really 'gets it'!

"I just wanted to thank you for today's group session. Listening to you was the first time I have felt that any professional really 'gets it' in terms of what we are experiencing. Everything you covered was incredibly helpful and will definitely help me to support my child at home."

It's magic how you embed so much learning without her knowing

"You just seem to weave so much richness into everyday tasks with Miss 13. It's magic how you can follow her lead and embed so much learning without her knowing"

You are not like other therapists

"What is your job? You're not like other therapists, this is fun"

Boy 8 yrs, Gifted & Autistic

I highly recommend Kate as a therapist and champion of PDA

"Working with Kate and my 12 yo PDAer has been life changing for our family. We felt heard, understood and Kate gave us simple practical ideas to make life smoother.

She helped us to set realistic goals and work toward them in a way our child needed. She is compassionate, fun and great with our child.

Not only did she help our child but helped myself and my husband to get through some challenging times.

I highly recommend Kate as a therapist and champion of PDA."
