Hi I'm Erika! I'm the founder of NeuroWaves. I'm a 26 year old queer, neurodivergent human. I've struggled a lot with my mental health over the years including depression, anxiety and a severe eating disorder so it is my passion to help others who are going through what I went through. And if you couldn't tell, my special interest is whales!
About Me
Certified Peer Support

Certified Autism Coach
Credentials
Values
Intersectional Activism
I believe in total liberation for all and that one group can't be free until all are free.
Autism Acceptance
I believe that autism is a disability, a natural neurotype and something that should be embraced rather than changed.
Importance of Neurodiversity
I believe neurodiversity is so important for the growth of our planet. Some of the greatest activists making real change in the world for good have neurodivergent minds and we need that to survive as a species Everyone has their own strengths and having diverse strengths in this world is essential.
Mental Health in the Neurodivergent Community
I believe that mental health is so important in the neurodivergent community because living in a world not catered to how your brain works is a huge contributer to anxiety and depression.
Humpback whales will go out of their way to help others who are nothing like them. Why can't we do the same for each other?
