💡 How to Advocate for Yourself in a Neuro-Inclusive Workplace!
You deserve a workplace where you can thrive — not just survive.

Alongside our therapy and coaching services, we’ve launched our Neuro-Inclusive Leadership & Workplace Strategy arm — taking insights from the people we support every day and bringing them into real organisational change.

Our latest guide, Creating a Neuro-Inclusive Workplace, shows you what inclusion really looks like — and how you can advocate for your needs at work.

From sensory-friendly spaces 🛋️ to adapted communication styles 💬, these strategies help everyone — but they start with knowing your needs and feeling confident to ask for them.

At The Divergent Edge, all of our practitioners are neurodivergent. That means we deeply understand the unique strengths, challenges, and lived experiences that come with brains that work differently. 💬

Whether you're seeking clarity after a late diagnosis, looking for tools to manage sensory overload, or just want someone who truly gets it — we're here to support you in thriving, not "fixing." 💜

We offer strength-based, neuro-affirming coaching and therapy — 100% online, Australia-wide.
