Our Story

I started my previous blog, Mindful Rambles, as a way to reach out to others and share my experiences with education, health, and the free-spirited lifestyle I lead. Over a decade later, I found myself in a completely different stage in life, wanting to do more of what I am passionate about: sensory regulation and executive functioning. I’m a compassionate Board-Certified Behavior Analyst, who recognizes the deeply flawed system of ABA. I am a disability advocate and mental health professional utilizing principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Trauma-Informed Care in my practice. I develop trainings and resources for agencies, businesses, practitioners, and families on anti-ableist practices, disability justice, intersectionality, and advocacy. I am an avid reader, first-time parent, and an “old soul” by night. I’m a Midwesterner who lives on the east coast with a west coast state of mind. I want to fill this space with ideas, strategies, resources, tips, advice, questions, support, and humor. I want to expand my horizons and connect with others from all different backgrounds. Please, join me 🙂

Why a Rabbit?

Rabbits tend to be high-energy with a rapid heart rate and quick movements. When I think of an anxious, hyperactive animal I think of, well, a rabbit. It also helps that my nickname as a child was Rabbit and it’s a nice alliteration.
