Autism & ADHD In-Home & Community Support Services for Adults Ages 18-35

Your choices come first: Participation is always voluntary. You are encouraged to ask questions, change your goals, pause support, or decide that a particular approach is not the right fit. Your autonomy, preferences, and comfort matter throughout the process.

 

Support built around you: There is no one-size-fits-all program. Support is shaped around your strengths, interests, preferences, goals, energy, capacity, and the things that matter to you.

 

Meaningful participation: Our time together is about more than simply getting through a list of tasks. We can focus on what you actually want to do and experience—whether that means working on daily routines, pursuing an interest, getting out into the community, exploring education or employment, volunteering, participating in recreation, or simply spending time doing something you enjoy.

 

Practical, real-world support: Support happens where it is useful. We can work together at home or in the community, depending on your goals and what feels comfortable for you.

 

Connection and co-regulation: Sometimes having another person alongside you can make something feel more manageable, comfortable, or enjoyable. Support can include conversation, shared activities, co-regulation, encouragement, or simply having someone there with you.

​

Parallel engagement: We can participate alongside one another in activities that interest you—whether that means movement, creating, exploring an interest, running an errand, or working through a task together. You don't have to be interested in a traditional “program” for our time together to be valuable.

 

Movement and Boxercise: If movement is something you enjoy or would like to explore, sessions can incorporate light movement or Boxercise. With training, experience, and certifications in boxing coaching, I can provide adapted, recreational boxing-based activities focused on participation, enjoyment, movement, and confidence—not athletic performance.

 

Neurodiversity-affirming: Autism and ADHD are approached with understanding and respect. The focus is on self-understanding, recognizing strengths, reducing barriers, and finding approaches that support your participation and wellbeing—not on trying to make you fit a particular mould.

 

Executive functioning support: Support can focus on the skills involved in managing everyday tasks and responsibilities, such as planning, prioritizing, organization, time management, task initiation, sequencing, transitions, working through multi-step tasks, remembering commitments, and following through. This is not subject-specific tutoring or academic instruction. Instead, we focus on the underlying strategies that can make it easier to approach, organize, and navigate the tasks of everyday life.

 

Self-advocacy and communication: Support can include identifying needs and preferences, communicating boundaries, expressing concerns, asking for accommodations, preparing for difficult conversations, navigating services and systems, and exploring accessible ways to advocate for yourself that honour your communication style, preferences, and needs. This may include spoken communication, written communication, AAC, visual supports, prepared scripts, email, or other communication methods. There is no single “right” way to communicate—what matters is finding ways for you to express your choices, needs, boundaries, and preferences that work for you.

 

Designed with your capacity in mind: Sessions are generally 1–2 hours, with the structure and activities adapted to your energy, capacity, needs, and goals. Some days may involve accomplishing something specific; other days may call for a slower pace. The intention is for our time together to feel purposeful, manageable, and meaningful—not like another demand you have to push through.

​

Collaborative with caregivers and support persons, where applicable: With your consent, caregivers and other important people in your life can be involved when helpful. Collaboration can support consistency, communication, and shared understanding while respecting your privacy, choices, and autonomy.

 

Purposeful support that offers peace of mind: This service provides dedicated time for an adult to pursue interests, build skills, participate in activities, connect with their community, and work toward personally meaningful goals. For families and caregivers, it can also offer reassurance that their loved one has dedicated time to do things that are meaningful to them, with support that is intentional, individualized, and respectful of who they are.
