Autism & Neurodiversity Consulting
Thank you for taking a moment out of your day to visit my page. My name is Andreja, and I am a certified Relationship Development Intervention (RDI) Consultant. I coach parents, caregivers, and educators of children with autism and other diverse needs. I’m also a Yoga and Mindfulness teacher for children and adults with diverse needs. I am fortunate to have had this wonderful opportunity to work with parents and educators of children with diverse needs for over 15 years all around the world remotely and in person. I teach people how to utilise strategies in their interaction with individuals with autism and other diverse needs.
My goal is simple; to educate and inspire more people to take immediate action to improve their mindset, habits, behaviours and communication style towards children and adults with diverse needs.
You are at the right place if you are experiencing some of the following obstacles regarding an individual with autism or other diverse needs:
- You’ve received a child diagnosis that you feel is difficult to accept and navigate
- You’re struggling with feelings of guilt or shame
- The individual is not seeming to interact and engage with you, and appears to reject following and learning from you
- You don’t know to set up plans, goals, or strategies for their growth
- You don’t know which intervention to choose and you worry about their future
- The individual has very limited language or is non-verbal
- If your child struggles to see the world from a different point of view; not showing curiosity about other people, has difficulty greeting or responding to greetings, has a low level of interpersonal interest when amongst others
- The individual has “limited eye contact” and is not visually referencing
- The individual shows repetitive or idiosyncratic behaviour
- The individual has difficulty with independency and self-care skills
- The individual struggles with flexibility
- The individual struggles with accepting mistakes and having difficulty with thinking in alternatives
- The individual displays challenging or aggressive behaviours
- The individual struggles in school; academically; socially or emotionally
- Your child school or therapists need training on how to interact with and teach your child in a more meaningful way
- If you or your child have symptoms of anxiety or depression

02
Connect to autistic individuals’ experiences, so you can truly respect, respond to, and learn from them about how they engage with you and experience the world.
03
