Dual Perspective and Shared Understanding.

As an autistic adult and parent of neurodiverse young adults, I understand many of the challenges it takes to launch from both sides. Let me help you develop the skills you need to feel confident as you begin the next phase of your life.

1:1 Coaching

Personalized support for life’s next steps.
Launching into college, work, or into general adulting can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. Through 1:1 coaching, I work alongside neurodiverse young adults to build the skills and confidence needed to thrive in the real world.

What sessions look like:

  • A calm, supportive space where you’re heard and understood

  • Clear, step-by-step strategies tailored to your goals

  • Practice with real-life situations (job interviews, class communication, scheduling, self-advocacy)

  • Accountability and encouragement to keep progress moving forward

Focus areas may include:

  • Executive functioning (planning, organization, time management)

  • Communication and self-advocacy

  • Routines for school, work, or daily life

  • Stress management and problem-solving

How it works:

  • Weekly or biweekly sessions (virtual or in-person)

  • Tools and resources you can use right away

  • Progress check-ins to celebrate wins and adjust strategies as needed

Small Group Programs

Grow skills. Build confidence. Connect with peers.
Sometimes the best learning happens together. Small group coaching brings neurodiverse young people together in a supportive, welcoming space to practice real-world skills, share experiences, and build community.

What sessions look like:

  • Interactive activities and guided discussions led by Coach Catie

  • A safe environment to practice communication, problem-solving, and teamwork

  • Opportunities to learn from peers who understand similar challenges and strengths

  • Encouragement to try new strategies and celebrate progress together

Focus areas may include:

  • Social and workplace communication

  • Executive functioning and organization skills

  • Self-advocacy and confidence-building

  • Coping strategies for stress and change

  • Practicing independence while strengthening connections

How it works:

  • Small groups (5–10 participants) to keep sessions personal and interactive

  • Weekly sessions, offered virtually or in person

  • Real-life practice and take-home strategies to apply between meetings

Fireside Chats

Instead of lectures and traditional speaking engagements, I host interactive “fireside chats,” which are relaxed group conversations where I share practical tools, answer questions, and normalize the challenges of launching into adulthood as a neurodiverse young person. These chats provide families and young adults with the opportunity to hear real-life strategies, connect through shared experiences, and walk away with clear steps they can implement immediately.

Popular fireside chat topics:

  • Little tips & tricks for daily living that make big impacts

  • The importance of body language and personal appearance for neurodiverse people

  • Communication & self-advocacy for college or work

  • Self-care for wellness

  • Turning overwhelm into a plan that works

 FAQs

  • Step 1: Schedule an intro session
    This is a supportive conversation where we’ll define your goals, discuss challenges, and determine whether 1:1 coaching or a group program is the right fit.

    • A welcoming, judgment-free space

    • Straightforward, real life solutions

    • Clear next steps you can take right away

    • Coaching options that fit your needs and schedule

  • A limited number of sliding‑scale spots are available for 1:1 coaching and group sessions are available.

  • Insurance is not accepted, nor are my services able to be reimbursed by insurance.

  • Loosely, 18 years old through mid-twenties. Adults in the age-range have a variety of skills and maturity, which is compounded more by neurodiversity. While I specialize in this age group, many of my coaching resources can be used for late teens through adulthood.

  • Coaching works best when a client can engage in reciprocal communication, meaning they’re able to share their thoughts and respond to guidance in a back-and-forth way. Clients should also have a desire to learn and apply new strategies, and be at a stage where they’re actively building the skills needed to thrive more independently at school, work, or in daily life.

  • 1:1 Coaching sessions start at $100, and small group coaching programs begin at $345/6-week session.
