Meet Kathleen,

Kathleen West is passionate about ensuring that young people who are neurodiverse (primarily those with High Functioning Autism) reach their true potential in life, career and in the social world. Kathleen has over 30 years of experience in primary, secondary and special education teaching and has completed a Master’s in Special Education; majoring in Autism. Kathleen enjoys living in a neurodiverse family and world.

In 2013 Kathleen created a social group for people with High Functioning Autism and evolved a structure that people involved loved. This first venture grew into multiple groups both in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast. Kathleen left in 2018 due to family needs but is returning to continue assisting people to realise what is in their ‘realm of possibilities’ in many aspects of their life.

In these groups the young people are taught about being and embracing neurodiversity. They are shown that neurodiversity is its own culture, a unique way of seeing and interpreting the world and are encouraged to exploit their interests and talents. Kathleen knows that in order for people to be successful, in the broader community, they need to learn and understand the unwritten rules of social relationships and have an opportunity to practice these skills. The social groups provide this environment and, most importantly, an opportunity to make true and maybe lifelong friends. This can be rare for people with Autism as they may be isolated and excluded at school and in the community. However, when they attend these groups, they meet people like themselves and they help and encourage each other to be successful.
