Meet Amanda
Meet Amanda
I am a Registered Counsellor, parenting coach, certified Montessori educator and homeschooling mother of two.
My work is grounded in both professional training and lived experience. I am autistic, and both of my daughters are autistic too. This gives me a deep understanding of the realities many families face when navigating neurodivergence, parenting stress, homeschooling and education choices, relationship transitions, and everyday overwhelm.
I offer warm, practical and neurodiversity-affirming support for women and families who want to feel more calm, capable and connected. My approach is supportive, down-to-earth and intentionally not clinical or intimidating.
I work with clients online across Australia, and also offer some local in-home support for families in the Sunshine Coast and Moreton Bay regions.
