Being a mother to two incredible neurodivergent children, Arianna and David, has shaped not only my personal journey but also my mission in life. Every day, I navigate the joys and challenges of parenting with patience, adaptability, and a deep commitment to understanding their unique minds.
I advocate for their needs, create personalized strategies to support their growth, and embrace the beauty of seeing the world through their perspectives. My experience has given me firsthand insight into the struggles many families face—meltdowns, communication barriers, and the search for the right support systems.
This journey has fueled my passion for Supportive Minds, where I help other parents and individuals move beyond limiting labels and find strength in their differences. I believe that every child deserves to be seen, heard, and understood, and I strive to empower families with the tools and knowledge they need to thrive.
Motherhood isn’t about fitting into a mold—it’s about embracing the unique path of each child and guiding them toward their fullest potential.
