EDUCATOR. COACH. THERAPIST. CONSULTANT
Stephanie DeSouza
As a seasoned mental health practitioner, educator, neurodiverse coach, and consultant, I am deeply committed to supporting individuals who think and experience the world in unique ways. My passion lies in empowering those who identify as neurodivergent to uncover their strengths and discover balanced ways to navigate their lived experiences within their communities. A neurodiverse perspective has become central to my work.
My coaching is collaborative and goal-oriented.
I strive to provide guidance and accountability to help clients achieve their desired outcomes, regardless of circumstance or setting. Together we work to reduce disruption in your life and instead look to create a comfortable balance.
​
An official diagnosis is not required to begin our partnership. We will work to identify challenges and focus on solutions. I am comfortable including parents, siblings, partners, and/or colleagues if it’s helpful to the coaching process. I look forward to working together.
