📣 I’m back!

Thank you all for your patience and understanding over the past few weeks while I took some much-needed personal leave. I truly appreciate the space to step back and focus on things at home; it means the world to me.

I’m gradually easing back into sessions this week and am excited to reconnect with all of you.

In the coming weeks, I will also be sharing some exciting changes we’ve been working on behind the scenes. I can’t wait to reveal what’s coming next!

Thank you again for your continued support. 💛

🌿 Service Update – Temporary Pause 🌿

Hello everyone,

I wanted to inform you that I will be taking an unexpected personal leave. My last day of sessions will be this Friday, and I plan to return to work on Tuesday, June 17.

Like many of the families I support, I am navigating the beautiful and complex reality of raising a neurodivergent household. At this moment, it is important for me to step back and focus fully on my home life so that I can continue to be present in a grounded and sustainable way.

During this time, all sessions will be put on hold, and I won’t be available to check messages or emails until I return. I truly appreciate your understanding and ongoing support.

If you need assistance before my return, I encourage you to reach out to your wider care team. Please know that I will be back soon, ready to reconnect and continue our work together. 💛

With care,
Kelly – Autistic GEM
