I’m heading back to uni in a few weeks to start my thesis and I thought I’d share some accommodations that have helped me in the past and that I’ll probably be asking for again.

Let’s be real though - the most important accommodation is an accessible process for requesting them.

Support shouldn’t require chasing specialists for reports and multiple appointments all the while we’re attending classes just to have our needs met.

Accessibility that requires forms, proof and multiple appointments isn’t accessibility, it’s another barrier.

Sensory Stress is common for Autistic people but it's also something that many other neurodivergents experience too. As sensory stress gradually builds, we experience increasing signs of distress.

Daily stress from systemic trauma, capitalism, the collapse of democracy, the violence we witness, and the fears we face, pushes us further along this continuum so that sensory averse input becomes even more likely to cause fatigue, overload, meltdown, shutdown, and burnout.
✏️ I'm crowdfunding my current work in progress: The Nervous System Study Guide. This is a workbook covering holistic nervous system science from a neurodiversity paradigm lens with an aim towards collective healing, not just individual soothing. Details here: https://traumageek.thinkific.com/courses/nervous-system-study-guide

🧠 If you don't want to wait for me to finish writing the Nervous System Study Guide, you can get all the info now in video format. Topics include polyvagal basics and criticism, energetics of the ANS, the BioPscyhoSocial nervous system, Neurodivergent trauma, attachment trauma, systemic trauma, and pathways to healing.

Important Announcement:

The past year has brought an abundance of new clients that I am so grateful to work with. As the new year begins, I’m taking time to focus on my current therapy clients and prioritize sustainable, thoughtful care.

Because of this, I am not accepting new therapy clients for the foreseeable future.

However, I do have availability for ADHD and autism assessments for ages 3+, including adults. I accept Aetna and Anthem commercial insurances and self-pay.

If you’d like to be added to the therapy waitlist or schedule an assessment, you can email me at elizabeth@soundmindky.org

Wishing you a gentle start to the year!
