Bio About

"Embrace your unique quirks, and you'll unlock the superpowers within you. Use them to thrive, flourish, and create a better world."

Combining 25+ years in education with therapy and coaching expertise, I empower neurodivergent individuals, families and educators to thrive and flourish. I work with individuals across the age spectrum with complex neuroprofiles of learning and behavioural differences

I provide holistic solutions using a strengths-based, values-centric and collaborative approach with clients, their families and other clinicians and therapists.

As an interdisciplinarian, I incorporate methodologies from various disciplines beyond the typical academics such as invention education, sports and the arts to cultivate curiosity, nurture critical and creative thinking, build emotional agility and mental fitness.

As a community activist, I champion self-advocacy and accessibility to inclusive learning and developmental opportunities. I founded and lead the Anything DYStinctive Community as a social support and resource sharing group on WhatsApp and as a LearnX Community with the National Library Board (NLB) Singapore.
