Hi there!
I’m Alana, a neurodivergent Speech Therapist and professional educator.
I’m an AuDHDer, which means I am Autistic and an ADHDer. I take not only my life story, but those experiences of other neurodivergent people, to inform how I practice and educate others.
I have predominately worked with autistic children and children with other disabilities, along side with their main support networks. I actively practice a Neurodiversity Affirming approach, as all brains should be celebrated and supported within society.
This is my passion area as I care about neurodivergent children feeling safe and happy in all environments. My commitment is to foster an inclusive environment that supports individuals with neurological differences through education and inclusive practices. I am dedicated to empowering everyone to achieve their utmost potential, promoting ongoing learning and collaboration, and advocating for increased awareness of neurodivergence.
