With a background dedicated to advocating for underprivileged communities, I worked closely with women affected by intimate partner violence, helping them achieve both short- and long-term goals, discover their strengths, and navigate daily challenges.
As a late-diagnosis autistic ADHDer myself, I recognize that each person’s journey with ADHD and autism is unique, shaped by individual strengths, challenges, and experiences. My personal insights into the neurodivergent experience help me approach your unique experiences with curiosity and a genuine understanding of the importance of finding personalized strategies that honor one’s identity while fostering growth, resilience, and self-compassion.
My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where we can explore what works best for you and build confidence in your unique identity, free from judgment and filled with encouragement. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on this journey.

Although I am a third-generation teacher on my maternal side of the family, I am also a first-generation master's degree holder in education. Being a first-generation South Asian Canadian cis-gendered woman, I know what it feels like to feel confused about my place and role in certain social settings just by navigating my own intersectionality in various ways. I resonate with not being seen or heard and what it feels like to be brushed aside because in certain places my personal, professional, and academic identity was misunderstood and/or misrepresented. That is why I believe that building relationships is vital in order for me to truly help anyone with their goals.
I invite consultations of neurodivergent individuals in the BIPOC community, and I also serve as an ally for neurodivergent queer individuals. I truly value the process of learning and unlearning, as it can keep us thinking critically and foster better relationships, but also assist in avoiding stagnancy. Whether you are a student, switching careers, struggling to organize and keep up with life, I have experience in working with and supporting neurodivergent students, neurodivergent individuals undergoing career changes and who need support with AuDHD/ ADHD coaching in executive functioning.
My goal as an educator and coach is to ensure I foster culturally responsive and reflective relationships with BIPOC individuals (as I am a member in this community) and as an ally for queer individuals. My hope is to always create a safe space to allow individuals to advocate for themselves and take control of their personal, professional, and academic lives.
Some fun facts about me, I was once an athlete myself (specifically I played Rugby and Basketball). I am also an extreme foodie, I love cooking new recipes and trying out new restaurants- wherever there is food, I am there!
I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you reach your goals.

Peer ADHD, Autism & AuDHD Coach
ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
Reduced Rate Services Available
I am a late-diagnosed AuDHDer and I didn’t have anyone who could help me navigate that journey. I had to do a lot of work to understand what that now meant, how to reflect on my old life, and what I could do to move forward in a way that is more supportive for myself.
Luckily, neurodivergence became a new special interest for me! I am currently studying at Toronto Metropolitan University to obtain a degree in Social Work.
I am just starting my professional coaching journey, but I have worked informally to coach and help newly-diagnosed or suspecting neurodivergents find their way over the last few years. My goal is to use my lived experience to help other late-diagnosed NDs to have a space to feel seen, their challenges validated, and to learn what they need to make life a little easier on them.

TERRA GUILER
She/Her
ADHD, Autism & AuDHD Coach
ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
I was the first diagnosed neurodivergent person in my (now very apparently) neurodivergent family. As an often high masking individual myself, my diagnosis was initially met with skepticism and a lack of support. ADHD/AuDHD is not a one-size-fits-all diagnosis. Understanding and accepting my brain, incorporating strategies to help succeed and cope, and working to overcome the shame and guilt associated with not fitting into boxes, has been an ongoing mission. I welcome you to join me on this mission as I work to help other neurodivergent people navigate their diagnoses, frustrations, and lives in general!
With a career based in outreach and counselling, an open, non-judgemental ear, and a relational approach, I work with adults of any age. My focus has been parents and questioning / newly diagnosed individuals, though anyone who feels we may be a good fit is encouraged to reach out!
I’m so happy you’re here!

As an Autistic ADHDer myself, I understand the classroom and workplace are not always neurodivergent-friendly, and this motivates me to use my creative and pattern-recognition abilities as a catalyst for positive change. I believe that everyone deserves to and can become the fullest version of themselves, and I am here to support and cheer you on along the way. My background in higher education, training and development, intercultural communication, and project management has given me years of experience working with students and professionals from all walks of life.
I also specialize in the late-diagnosed experience, and my special interests are ADHD and autism, so I am always researching and learning more. My core values are authenticity, compassion, and holistic growth, which I weave into my coaching and consulting practices. I believe we are all worthy of belonging, doing meaningful work, and unconditional rest. I am also a first-generation Canadian-born child of immigrants, which has not only impacted how my neurodivergent traits show up but also how I've navigated work and school. I hope to share my experiences and learn from yours as we co-create ways for you to thrive.
Together, let's embark on a journey of discovery, transformation, and empowerment.
OLLIE D'AGOSTINO

As a Support Worker who is neurodivergent and disabled, I understand that certain chores, tasks, and daily habits can become overwhelming and difficult - if not impossible on some days.
My aim with these services is to provide a non-judgemental environment that caters to individual needs without preconceived notions regarding how to live your life.
My approach will be one that centres care, empathy, and works within a disability justice and anti-oppressive framework.
I’ve worked with clients for years to help promote community, self-acceptance, and agency.
I look forward to the opportunity to work together!
ELIANA BRAVOS
She/Her
ADHD, Autism & AuDHD Coach | Academic Strategist | Entrepreneur/Leadership Coach
ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
Hey, I’m Eliana, and I’m excited to meet you. I’m multiply neurodivergent and a proud ADHDer with more than 10 years of experience supporting neurodivergent people in work, school, and community contexts.
I graduated with a 3.96 CGPA from the University of Toronto, majoring in Psychology and Peace, Conflict, and Justice, and was awarded over 80k in scholarships for academic merit and leadership participation throughout my university career.
But it really wasn’t easy - I even considered dropping out after going through a really bad burnout and feeling like I was navigating systems not designed for me. What helped me most was meeting a mentor with ADHD who helped me learn how to work with my brain instead of against it and figure out systems that actually met my needs. So I know firsthand how helpful it can be to finally stop feeling alone in your journey and have someone say, “We can figure things out together,” and mean it.
I believe deeply that there is no one right way to think, behave, or exist. So I’ll do my best to meet you where you’re at, be curious about you, and take the time to really understand your context. That way, we can brainstorm possibilities, try out different tools, and see what’s actually effective in helping you get unstuck and grow in the ways you care about.
If you’re struggling: I don’t believe that you’re lazy or that you just need more discipline. I’ll never tell you to “just get a planner”. What I will do is work with you to figure out how to create supportive contexts and systems that will help you get closer to meeting your goals - using a blend of lived experience, wisdom gained from being in community with neurodivergent people, and evidence-based tools backed by peer-reviewed research.
If you’re considering entrepreneurship, I’m also happy to help there. I’ve founded a non-profit, trained 1000+ leaders on accessibility, and built an app that helps neurodivergent people find community and mentorship.
In my free time, I love hiking, learning about people’s niche interests, and having new experiences with old and new friends. Fun fact: my personal favourite ADHD strategy is regular body doubling calls with friends :)

If you’d like to connect for a free consultation, I welcome you to email me directly at Kim@blueskylearning.ca with your preferred availability and any questions you may have:
I am an AuDHDer and a queer, white settler currently residing on unceded Cree land in Amiskwaciy-Wâskahikan (Edmonton), Alberta.
I primarily work with adults of all ages and have a particular passion for supporting those who've been late-diagnosed or are self-realized in their neurodivergence.
Your neurodivergent traits are not character flaws, and you are deserving of meaningful support, compassion and respect. My primary intentions as a coach are to empower folks to recognize their intrinsic worth, destigmatize the way they view and experience their neurodivergence and build helpful systems together to address the rest, with a little humour along the way.
Some of my special interests include: astrology, tarot & spirituality, nervous system regulation, art & creativity, sensory enrichment and organizing other people's houses.
I have a diverse background in supporting and advocating for children, youth, and families from varied intersecting experiences and systemic marginalization. Should we walk this path together, you can expect to be treated with unconditional acceptance, patience, and understanding.
I'm looking forward to meeting you!

LILLIMAN
They/Them
ADHD, Autism & AuDHD Coach
ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
As a non-binary AuDHDer and a member of a large, queer, neurodivergent family, my lived experience has made me passionate about supporting wonderful weirdos like me. Growing up, my house was always the place my friends came when they were questioning their identities and needed a safer space to talk to someone who had shared struggles and gotten through them. My goal is to provide that same space for you, as a peer mentor, a creative solutions-maker, and an empathetic ear!
My passion for creating safe and growth-focused spaces has also led me to a 10+ year career caring for neurodivergent kids, working with individuals and families to find creative solutions to unique problems, and encouraging resilience and self-expression at any age.
I strive to foster an environment that is trauma-informed, feminist, anti-oppression and collaborative. I strongly believe in the power of building community and asking "How do we navigate the relationship between our needs, our world, and making the most of resources available to us?"
My special interests include: gender & neurodivergence, child development and teaching self-advocacy, and the nervous system functions of ADHD and Autism.
I'm excited to meet you and find out how I can best be a support in your life!

Danielle is not currently accepting new clients and has a waitlist. Please email Danielle directly at danielle@blueskylearning.ca to inquire about availability.
An ADHDer with over eight years of experience in higher education and a Master of Education, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my role as an Academic Coach. I’m passionate about creating inclusive, welcoming spaces where university and college students feel safe to ask questions, explore their strengths, and build confidence in their academic journey.
I support students as they navigate the unique challenges of post-secondary life—whether that’s adjusting to new academic expectations, balancing competing priorities, or developing personalized strategies that help them thrive. My background in academic advising has shown me how powerful one-on-one support can be, especially when it encourages growth, resilience, and self-compassion.
My own path through education shapes how I support others. I worked throughout my undergrad and grad school while also managing familial responsibilities, which gave me a deep appreciation for the juggling act so many students face. That experience taught me how to manage my time, persevere through setbacks, and lean on support when needed—lessons I now use to help students optimize their experience.
As someone with ADHD, I understand how challenging it can be to stay focused, meet deadlines, and navigate systems that don’t always reflect how you learn best. I’ve felt the pressure and self-doubt. That’s why academic coaching is so meaningful to me—I’m not just here as a coach, but as someone who truly gets it.
At the heart of my work is a simple goal: to help students feel seen, supported, and empowered.

I am dedicated to supporting individuals in achieving their goals through personalized, strength-based pathways. My passion lies in creating safe, proactive environments that empower individuals to grow personally and professionally at their own pace. I take a trauma-informed approach to my work, ensuring that each person’s unique history, experiences, and learning styles are central to the support I provide.
Throughout my academic and professional career, I have worked extensively with children, families, and adults across therapeutic and educational settings, fostering their growth and witnessing their success. My years of experience have been grounded in a commitment to equity, compassion, and individualized care.
Currently, my doctoral research is rooted in philosophy and ethics, exploring the intersections of difficulty, trauma, and selfhood within educational settings. This work informs my practice, allowing me to tailor approaches that respect and honor the complexity of each person’s journey.
My ultimate goal is to guide individuals in exceeding their ambitions while fostering resilience, growth, and a sense of agency.

I aim to support you in ways that are affirming, inclusive, individualized, and strengths-focused to help you achieve and exceed your goals.

With a background in disability advocacy and coordination at a variety of institutions of higher education, I have had the pleasure of connecting with students in various ways. I find my joy in creating safe spaces to break down barriers, question processes, and find creative techniques to support neurodivergent spiciness in a neurotypical world.
I have experience working with high school, university, and non-traditional students with diagnoses of all types. Through my experiences, I have created a curriculum based around learning strategies, executive functioning skills, and student leadership and advocacy. I bring this knowledge and more into coaching through a social justice and strength-based lens.
My goal as a support system is to empower you to take up space, learn to develop your skills, and set and achieve your goals. I look forward to working with you through this piece of your journey!

I am a certified primary, junior, and senior teacher in the Province of Ontario, where I have taught, supported, and mentored students at all stages of their academic journeys. As a teacher as well as a Student Success Coordinator, I am passionate about students achieving their academic goals. From learning the foundations of math to understanding phonics in elementary school to coaching learning skills in university, my goal has always been the same: to give students an exceptional student experience as a part of their learning journey. To me, student success has a different meaning to different students, and my goal is to help students define their own "student success" through student-centered and inclusive approaches.
I have a background in Psychology, International Education, and Curriculum Studies. I’ve also been a Student Success Coordinator for several years, supporting domestic and international students with their learning.
