Consulting

I provide consulting and training at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience, with a focus on autism and neurodevelopmental differences. My work helps organizations, clinicians, lawyers and other professionals deepen their understanding of how predictive processing, sensory regulation, and internal systems shape behavior. Whether through case consultation, professional workshops, or expert analysis, I translate complex theory into practical insights that improve decision-making, communication, and outcomes in high-stakes contexts.

Approach

My consulting draws on both scientific knowledge and lived experience. Before my current work, I served as a paralegal at trial and provided pro bono advocacy for asylum-seeking minors — experiences that taught me how communication and regulation differences are often misread in legal contexts.  My graduate research in psychology and neuroscience focused on the embodied nature of neurodevelopment and culminated in my thesis, Embodying Autism: Living with an Autistic Brain, Body, and Mind. This continues to inform my consulting by bridging research, embodiment, and systems-level understanding.
 

Who I Work With

• Forensic psychiatry practices and multidisciplinary evaluation teams

• Attorneys and expert witnesses

• Mental-health professionals seeking advanced autism training

• Schools, clinics, and organizations developing neuroaffirming policy
