What is Autism Care?
Autism Care helps you to communicate confidently and thrive!
I work with autistic people of all ages who experience a range of communication differences.
We start with an assessment to understand how you (or your loved one) communicate now, and how you'd like to communicate. We explore your strengths and interests, as well as your goals for communication... and for life!
Together, we build a plan that helps you to communicate more easily and confidently, in ways that are natural and true to who you are. Our work is guided by your priorities, whether that’s making friends, advocating for yourself, navigating school or work, or simply feeling more comfortable in everyday conversations.
Why Choose Me for Autism Care?
I've been connecting with and learning from autistic people for over 3 decades
As a graduate student, I had the privilege of working with my first autistic clients. I was delighted to get to know each of them and learn from their unique ways of communicating. In my courses, I was introduced to the idea that autistic communication is different—not something that needs to be fixed. That was 30 years ago - my professors were ahead of their time!
Since then, I’ve worked with many autistic clients and connected with autistic people in my personal life. These relationships have deepened my appreciation for the diverse perspectives autistic people bring to the world.
I take a neurodiversity-affirming approach, tailoring support to each person’s goals and preferences. I focus on strengths and interests, and encourage independence and self-advocacy.
Listening closely to my clients—and to autistic voices in the broader community—helps me keep learning and improving the care I provide. I’m committed to offering respectful, high-quality support for autistic people in Manitoba and Ontario.
I offer autism care across Manitoba and Ontario. If you’re having trouble finding neurodiversity-affirming autism Speech-Language Pathology services in another province or territory, feel free to reach out. I’ll do my best to help.
