About Me

selfie for profile_edited.png

Hi I'm Ashleigh. I'm a late diagnosed AuDHD, PDAer with a bachelor's degree in Health Sciences (Nutritional Medicine). Over the last few years since being diagnosed there has been a lot of self-learning, and knowing my neurotype has helped me make a lot of sense about myself growing up and how I operate and cope now as an adult. I'm grateful for my children's diagnoses for helping me find my own. 

​

I also noticed that since becoming a mum, raising kids that require a lot of co-regulation and support, homeschooling, maintaining a relationship with my partner, not to mention "looking after myself" (ha), that trying to feed yourself let alone others can be really, really hard. 

​

Whether feeding yourself or your family has always felt hard, or it's something that only recently you feel you could use some support with, my goal is to provide you with an empathetic, understanding and holistic approach to mealtimes. 

​

I can't magically make mealtimes simple for you, but I know from firsthand experience that with the right supports in place I can help you reduce the stress, overwhelm and cognitive load that mealtimes can present.

​

These services are for everyone, and whilst I highlight the importance of supporting disabled folk, life itself can make this aspect of life feel like a lot. So regardless of who you are, please feel free to reach out if you think I may be able to support you or your family. 

​

I'm more than happy to have a no-obligations chat prior to committing to anything (whether this be via phone call, text or email). Please reach out initially via email and we can go from there. I look forward to connecting with you.

​

The Supportive Spoon would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the Custodians of the land on which we work and live, the Wathaurong people of the Kulin Nation, and their Elders past and present.
