About Us
Bridging Pathways is a neurodiversity affirming, strengths based practice that values connection, authenticity, inclusion and individuality. We believe that an individual should be embraced and celebrated for their differences, whilst harnessing their abilities and interests, as well as promoting connection over compliance.
We focus on bridging and creating pathways of connection between and within various neurotypes, offering support for neurodiverse individuals and those around them. We also strive to foster inclusive environments and communities.
