What they say is "Everyone wants to be Autistic"
They mean "Everyone wants compassion and accommodation for their sensory sensitivities and social tolerances"
& like - fuck yeah we do!
But they also are implying they will NOT recognize our needs and WON'T support them, so that's not a safe person
I will now be offering free OT consultations for neurodivergent individuals in New Jersey looking for a therapist for themselves, a child, a friend, or family member.
You can request an initial consultation through my client portal: embraceneurodiversot.clientsecure.me
Extremely relatable. That’s the only way I listen to music.
“While interventions in autism have traditionally focused on behavior and skills building, research suggests that what may be more important to autistic individuals is something less tangible: to be able to be one's self and part of the collective.”
If you or someone you know is looking for help, and struggles with their mental health and the impact it has on their daily lives and occupations (not just their job... EVERYTHING!), please consider referring them to Embrace NeurodiversOT.

I recently started my new business, Embrace NeurodiversOT, providing online telehealth occupational therapy services to neurodivergent individuals in New Jersey. My company focuses on the mental health of ND individuals and supports engagement in their daily occupations. —>
Hello to my recent followers! My name is Rachael Tucker MS OTR/L- I am a neurodivergent registered and certified occupational therapist from New Jersey. I want to be able to utilize my different online platforms to offer my professional OT services to neurodivergent individuals to those in need. -->
AND!!! I think my clients at least deserve to know about the professional they are working with! Part of the therapeutic relationship is creating understanding and commonality between the therapist and the client.
Can I use this platform both professionally AND personally? I understand the need to separate our professional life and personal life to a degree, but didn’t my personal life grow my professional self?
I’m a ND occupational therapist and I want to share my personal quirks & interests online!!
I like the idea of a soldier being upset because they left their minstrels at home
