More Than Quirky Guidance Package
Foundation Session Booking and Guidance Package Payment
Has someone raised with you that they believe your child could be neurodivergent? Perhaps it’s something you’ve noticed yourself, and you want a “second opinion” before you mention it to your GP.
Maybe, like many parents, you’ve been seeking help for your child for many years but keep hitting walls and want some support getting where you want - and need - to be!
Perhaps your child is already confirmed as neurodivergent, but you don’t feel they’re getting the support they really need to thrive. You might have concerns about their behaviours, education, mood, self-esteem, or friendships. Are there specific problems that keep repeating at home? Or at school?
Do you want to know if there’s something you’ve missed, or something you’re not seeing because it’s your family’s normal? Are you battling the feeling that something just isn’t quite right?
Or do you want to learn about more support options, social groups, safe places, neuroaffirming allied health professionals and paediatricians, etc?
Book this option to:
- have a 1 hour chat online or over a coffee in a local cafe on Sydney’s Upper North Shore
- be provided with a comprehensive report containing insight, understanding, and recommendations of potential next steps
- receive numerous check-ins to monitor and support progress
- meet again to discuss outcomes and new hurdles

School-Talk Session (Back-to-School Package)
More Than Quirky Back-to-School Package
School-Talk Session Booking and Back-to-School Package Payment
School can be a tough experience for neurodivergent kids. Even the kids who quite enjoy it can have unmet needs; needs they don’t even know aren’t being met!
Do you feel your child isn’t quite getting the support they need? Maybe they’re masking very heavily at school and exploding at home. Perhaps they can’t quite find their people in terms of friendship groups. Do you feel uncomfortable asking the teacher to meet certain needs because you don’t want to be “That Parent”?
Maybe your experience is much tougher, they are constantly receiving disciplinary action, they’re disruptive, they’re struggling academically, or perhaps can’t even attend school. Maybe you feel their teacher, or even school, doesn’t understand neuroaffirming approaches, and are causing dysregulation.
More Than Quirky can help with any aspect of the education experience, whether that’s social, emotional, academic, getting ready in the mornings, resources and aids, IEPs, additional support needs, a combination of any of these, or something else entirely.
Book the Back-to-School Package to:
- have a 1 hour chat online or over a coffee in a local cafe on Sydney’s Upper North Shore
- be provided with a comprehensive report containing insight, understanding, and recommendations of potential next steps around specific areas of your child’s education experience
- download printable resources for your child and/or their teacher
- have an optional second 1 hour chat online to discuss progress and amend approach, including a second report containing suggestions and recommendations
- receive numerous check-ins to monitor and support progress, with optional support communicating with your child’s school
- navigate your child’s education with an approach that is both neuroaffirming and education-system-positive
Booking of this School-Talk Session confirms and pays for your booking of the entire Back-to-School Package, and indicates acceptance of Terms & Conditions.

Illumination Session (to begin the Radical Strategy)
More Than Quirky Radical Strategy
Illumination Session Booking and Package Payment
Is your child neurodivergent? Perhaps it’s the norm in your household, or something you already know a lot about, so you can already recognise it. Perhaps they’ve already been assessed and confirmed/diagnosed.
But maybe you don’t feel it’s a problem. Your child might be thriving. You might feel that appointments and therapies and IEPs seem more detrimental than the complications around neurodivergence. You might be adopting Radical Acceptance, and providing the accommodations and support your child needs.
Even with Radical Acceptance, personal knowledge and experience, and/or a very capable and resilient child, many neurodivergent kids turn into teenagers or adults who experience difficulties. It is why so many autistic females and gender-diverse people, for example, aren’t confirmed until later in life when they hit burnout or overload. It is also why many late-diagnosed neurodivergent adults share stories of mental health problems, miserable adolescence, and family and peer conflict… but also delightful tales of finding their people, self-understanding, and new strategies later in life.
Book this support package to have a 1 hour chat online or over a coffee in a local cafe on Sydney’s Upper North Shore, and be provided with a comprehensive report containing insight, understanding, recommendations, and links, to empower your neurodivergent child to be the happiest they can be in the future.
Learn how to predict and prevent problems, to recognise them when they begin creeping in, to know when to consider reaching out for additional medical / allied health support and therapies, and to build a future for your child in which they are neurodivergent and successful. Arm your child and your family with knowledge, strategies, and techniques to overcome the likely hiccups that can come with neurodivergence.
Not successful despite being neurodivergent. Just successful and thriving.

30 Minute Initial Pre-Assessment
Has someone raised with you that they believe your child could be neurodivergent? Perhaps it’s something you’ve noticed yourself, and you want a “second opinion” before you mention it to your GP.
