Coaching for Living in Autistic Alignment with Gem
Hi, I’m Gem (they/them). I’m a transformational coach, facilitator and podcaster and I love working with Thriving Autistic. I’m also a parent to neurodivergent children.
I’m passionate about advocating for and supporting neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ people. As a late-identified Autistic and ADHD adult myself, I believe there’s something really magical about living in alignment with our neurotype, energy levels, gender identity and sexuality, among other things.
Through my 1:1 work, I support my clients to figure out how to do life in a way that’s compatible with who they are and what they want and need.
If you decide to book a session with me, you are welcome to bring anything you think would be helpful for you in making sense of yourself and the world following diagnosis.
Some things that often come up:
- Self-care as an Autistic person
- Masking and exploring unmasking
- Emotional regulation, meltdowns and shutdowns
- Alexithymia – difficulty identifying emotions
- Navigating Autistic burnout
- Figuring out what your needs are and how to communicate them to others
- Dealing with internalised ableism
- The intersection of being Autistic and LGBTQIA+
Sessions are neurodivergent-affirming and you are very welcome to stim, take breaks, have your camera on/off, or make use of any other accommodations you might need. I’d love for you to feel as comfortable as possible.
I will follow up our session with some resources you might find helpful based on what we’ve discussed.
