Who is Crystal?
Hi, my name is Crystal. I am 31 years old, a mum, and a hopeful university student-to-be! My dream is to become an Occupational Therapist, specialising in neurodivergence and mental health in young children & adolescents.
I am hoping to extend a helping hand and support children like mine as well as their families. Sometimes, our brains can work so beautifully with us; other times, they can work so wonderfully against us.
My child is is neurodivergent and I have come to understand so much. The importance of caring for and supporting the person underneath the labels they may carry is one of my core values. I also have ADHD and have learned so much about myself, which has helped me understand and develop compassion for others and myself.
Good days, bad days, and "the what even is going on?" kind of days - these are the times I would like to offer support, care and companionship, even if that looks like crying while cleaning spilt milk!
The checks, qualifications and experience behind the support

Being a Mum
I have been a parent for around a decade. Since my child was diagnosed, I have been navigating neurodivergence, therapy appointments, and countless reports. I've learned when to ask questions, what questions to ask, and that Google is sometimes my best friend.
Trial and error is always a good way to learn on the go; following the advice provided by the health professionals is always ideal - and recommended. Doing both is something I have become quite familiar with.
