On top of Kate's thorough training in neurodiversity from her certification (ADHD & Asperger's/ASD Coaching Certification) at The ADHD & Asperger’s/ASD Centre, Kate has a BA in Theatre Studies and a Postgraduate Certificate in Creative Book Publishing. Her extensive background in the arts has led to a keen interest in supporting artists and creative types embrace the power of their neurodiversity and thrive within their chosen medium. Kate enjoys coaching people of all ages and has a special place for supporting children and their parents as they learn how to understand and embrace neurodiveristy in themselves and their kids.
Kate spent many years avoiding therapy, coaching, and personal development after some negative experiences in high school.
