Along with Kate's thorough training in neurodiversity through her certification (ADHD & ASD1 Coaching Certification) at The ADHD & Spectrum Centre, Kate holds 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 individuals to embrace the power of their neurodiversity and thrive within their chosen medium. Kate enjoys coaching people of all ages and has a special passion for supporting children and their parents as they learn to understand and embrace neurodiversity in themselves and their kids.

Kate spent many years avoiding therapy, coaching, and personal development after some negative experiences in high school. In adulthood, she has committed herself to personal growth and has learned the amazing benefits of allowing positive therapeutic practices into her life. She has a deep understanding and empathy for those who dislike or are averse to counseling and is honored to hold space for those feelings. She offers a safe and non-judgmental environment for her clients to seek support around any issue.
