CommUNiTY Collaboration

MY COACHING PHILOSOPHY:

black and white image of a Black and white person with their hands clasped together in front of their chests.

One of my main professional goals is to break the colonized norm of hierarchy within educational settings while shifting the majority of the labor away from the “expert,” to create a more COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENT with greater participation.

i do this by encouraging fellow collaborators, not to be mere “receptacles” of information, but ACTIVE & CURIOUS PARTICIPANTS more so guiding ME, rather than reversed.

i invite people to let me know what THEIR needs are within a Q/A setting instead of lecture style. Co-collaborators (commUNiTY + collaborators) come to me with their questions, in a safe environment, where i give support, knowledge and expertise in response.

ALL questions relating to UNlearning &/or healthy interpersonal relationships are welcomed, whether a beginner or more experienced.

For individual sessions, i prefer to use Signal app via text/voice notes unless other accommodations are requested.

Topics:

* anti-racism

* autism, ADHD, AuDHD

* love and relationships

* abuse survivors

* parenting an autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, anxious &/or depressed kid
