Every Mind forward one step at a time.

Embracing Neurodiversity. Coaching Growth. Celebrating Progress.

You don't have to figure it out alone.

At Next Step Neuro Coach, I believe meaningful support begins with understanding, not judgment.

Whether you're looking for support for yourself, your child, or your family, we'll start where you are and take your next step together.

Ask A Question

meet the COACH

I'm the heart behind Next Step Neuro Coach. I'm a wife, a mom to three amazing kiddos, a late-diagnosed neurodivergent adult, and someone who has found so much joy in helping others feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward.

My own journey has given me a personal understanding of the challenges that can come with navigating a world that isn't always designed for neurodivergent minds. That lived experience, combined with my professional background, has shaped the compassionate, individualized approach I bring to every coaching relationship.

I know how vulnerable it can feel to ask for support. Whether you're navigating executive functioning challenges yourself or supporting a neurodivergent child, my goal isn't to "fix" you. It's to help you better understand how your brain works, discover strategies that truly fit your life, and leave each session feeling a little more confident than when you arrived.

Professionally, I hold dual bachelor's degrees in Elementary Education and Special Education and am licensed in Washington State to teach both Special Education (K-12) and General Education (K-5). Alongside coaching, I continue working in public school special education, which allows me to stay closely connected to the everyday realities families experience.

Throughout my career, I've supported neurodivergent children and families in a variety of settings, including:

• Early learning centers

• Childcare programs

• Elementary special education classrooms

• Middle school special education classrooms

• Community inclusion programs through local Parks and Recreation

Every experience has reinforced the same belief: meaningful growth happens when neurodivergent individuals and the people who love and support them are met with understanding instead of judgement, practical strategies instead of overwhelm, and encouragement instead of criticism.

I believe in meeting people where they are and helping them discover meaningful next steps that fit their life.

Whenever you're ready, I'm here to help make the next step feel possible.

Client Testimonies

"As a parent of a neurodivergent teen, I was overwhelmed trying to find the right kind of support. Hannah gave my daughter tools, confidence, and a sense of ownership over her life. It's more than coaching, it’s a lifeline. I am so thrilled Hannah took her own next step and turned her passion into a business."
— Emily J., Parent of a 14-year-old with Autism
