Neurodiversity Manitoba
Neurodiversity Resources, Support, and Advocacy
Neurodivergence is something to be celebrated rather than changed or fixed. It is important to appreciate the strengths that come with a differently wired brain. It is equally important to acknowledge the struggles that come with being different from typically developing children and the neurotypical majority.

How I Can Help
Individual Counselling
Individual counselling available virtually (by video chat or phone call) for anyone: parents, caregivers, educators, and children.
Counselling services are only available remotely at this time due to covid restrictions in Manitoba.
Resource Navigation
We’ll help you navigate our public health, social services, and education systems as you seek assessments, resources, and advocate for your child. It can be overwhelming determining the best next steps or finding best available support, we’ll work with you to make this process easier for your family.
Child Advocacy
We will help you advocate for your child with their school and work collaboratively with other service providers and agencies.
In particular, Jillian can attend IEP/SSP and other school-planning meetings to ensure your child’s needs are being met.
My services are offered on a sliding scale based on family household income.
