For Organizations
Neurodivergence reflects a natural variation in human nervous systems. Neurodivergent individuals often face challenges as a neurominority working in contexts designed by and for the neurotypical majority. When an estimated 20% of the workforce is neurodivergent, organizations risk lost opportunities, degraded productivity, and unhappy employees if they do not accommodate all neurotypes. Changes -- often small ones -- in hiring practices and workplace environments can go a long way to mediating the challenges and building a neurodiverse workforce and culture where every neurotype can be and do their best.
Who we work with
Organizations of most any size and type. The key prerequisite is an interest in improving your organization by embracing and accommodating neurodiversity.

The business case
Neurodivergent individuals often bring exceptional abilities, but traditional hiring practices filter them out, and conventional workplace environments prevent them from contributing their best. The result? You're missing out on talent, losing employees who could thrive with the right support, and leaving significant productivity on the table. The solution isn't charity or token accommodations. It's building systems and cultures that work for different kinds of brains.
What we work on
Just as we want you to work with individuals the way they work best, we try to work with your organization the way it works best. We prefer education over brute force. Sometimes disruptive change is needed and good, but our starting place is small, incremental changes that can add up to a big difference.
Common areas we address include:
Neurodivergent-Friendly Hiring Process Design
Your hiring process may be filtering out exceptional talent before you ever meet them. We'll help you redesign job descriptions, interview processes, and evaluation criteria to suit what actually matters for the role.
Workplace Accommodation Strategies
Move beyond basic legal compliance to creating environments where neurodivergent employees can actually thrive. We'll help you develop practical, sustainable accommodation approaches that work in your specific context.
Manager & Team Training
Equip your managers and teams with the understanding and tools they need to work effectively with neurodivergent colleagues. Training is practical, grounded in real workplace scenarios, and focused on actionable changes.
Policy Review & Development
Your policies may be creating barriers you don't see. We'll review existing policies and help you develop new ones that support neurodivergent success without adding bureaucratic burden.
Creating Inclusive Workplace Cultures
Culture change requires more than a training session. We'll partner with you to shift the underlying assumptions, practices, and norms that determine whether neurodivergent employees can truly belong and contribute.
Our Philosophy
We work in a neurodiversity paradigm. That means that we recognize neurodivergent profiles as a natural part of human diversity. Challenges arise for neurodivergents navigating a world that is not only designed for the neuromajority, but that often pathologizes neurodivergence as disorderd and deficient. In our consulting work our aim is not to "fix" neurodivergence or to train neurodivergent people to behave more neurotypically. That approach ultimately leads to unhappiness and burnout. Instead, we try to work within the neurodiversity paradigm to accommodate a diverse range of neurotypes.
How we work together
Consulting engagements are customized to your organization's needs, size, and goals. We'll start with a conversation about your current challenges and what success would look like. From there, we might work together on a specific project (like redesigning your hiring process) or engage in ongoing partnership as you build a more inclusive workplace.

Frequently asked questions
We primarily work with individuals with ADHD, autism, AuDHD, and other neurodivergent profiles. If you're neurodivergent and navigating the professional world, we should talk.
Consulting services are primarily conducted virtually, which allows for flexibility and accessibility regardless of location. However, on-site engagements, such as for training, are an option.
Organizations of all sizes, from startups to large enterprises. The specific services and approach are tailored to your organization's size, structure, and needs.
Both. Some organizations engage me for specific projects (like redesigning a hiring process or conducting training). Others prefer ongoing partnership as they work toward cultural change. We'll discuss what makes sense for your goals.
That depends on the project, but might include: increased retention of neurodivergent employees, improved hiring outcomes, manager confidence in supporting neurodivergent team members, employee satisfaction scores, or successful accommodation implementation. If desired we can work with third-parties who specialize in this type of measurement. We'll define success metrics together at the start of our engagement.
While I can provide guidance on creating inclusive practices, I'm not providing legal advice about ADA compliance. For legal questions, you should consult with your employment counsel. What I offer is practical, operational support for building genuinely inclusive workplaces.
