Menopause and midlife bring real changes, inside and out. For women and AFAB folks, shifts in hormones can affect body image, self-confidence, and intimacy. If you’re feeling frustrated by weight gain or pressured by unrealistic beauty standards, you’re not alone.

When you’re Autistic, your social battery is dead ☠️ and you have to try and do small talk 😑
The struggle is real!

This Pride, remember that a lot’s been happening to the LGBT2SQ+ community in countries where folx fought so hard to gain acceptance & human rights. Not to mention the many countries where being queer/trans is not accepted. So, please be an ally 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

This is what neuro-affirming care can look like: cozying up under a weighted blanket, blocking out the world with noise-cancelling headphones, and letting music soothe an overwhelmed nervous system.

I hear some scary stories from new therapists trying to find the right fit practice-wise. Do your homework, compare places, ask questions, negotiate, and know that you bring a lot to the table, too! ✨💡

This weekend, I hope you let yourself rest. It’s a gentle rebellion against a world obsessed with doing. Even in stillness, you are enough.

There are thousands of stories of medical gender bias & gaslighting. So many women/AFAB folks aren’t taken seriously, dismissed, & traumatized by medical professionals who’ve been trained in ways from the Stone Age. It needs to stop! #medicalgaslighting #georgiaoconnor #medicalgenderbias

Watching the story of Sally Gearhart and Harvey Milk reminded me how much courage it takes to stand up against hate. Pride wasn’t born out of celebration, but out of resistance and survival. We owe so much to those who came before us 🌈✨

Sometimes the biggest relief is just being understood; no long explanations, no need to mask, just someone who gets it.
You deserve spaces where you can just be you, and where your story makes sense without footnotes. 💜✨ #adhd #autistic #spoonie #audhd #therapy #neuroaffirming #therapistthoughts

Motherhood is often painted as the ultimate life milestone, but the reality can feel far more complex and overwhelming, especially for undiagnosed or late-diagnosed ADHD and Autistic mothers.

Women/AFAB people are taught to put their needs last. They fear letting people down, so when it comes to others, their anxiety around this overrides executive functioning challenges and leads to over-achieving, because they don’t ever feel good enough.

Bye Weight Watchers. Thanks for making massive profits at the cost of people’s psychological and physiological well-being because dieting doesn’t work. Won’t miss you.

How about both being Trans & Autistic can exist at once?! Why does a doctor who likely doesn’t have a clue about being Autistic get to decide if it’s gender identity or Autism…when by the nature of being Autistic we tend to see social norms like the gender binary differently #protecttranskids #nhs

✨ As an audhd therapist, it’s tiring to attend 'affirming' trainings that still:
🚩 use non-person-first language
🚩 label clients as 'non-compliant'
🚩 push treatments ignoring marginalised groups
We need nuance + lived experience
