About

Hello! I am the founder of Autism & Disability Advocacy Services (ADAS). Formerly Scripture Prescriptions Ministries. I rebranded to make room for the expansion and growth God is doing in my ministry and professional work. In 2019 I learned that I was a part of the neurodivergent community with my diagnosis of Chronic PTSD and high-functioning autistic traits commonly known as Aspergers. In 2020 the Lord stirred up a divine calling over my life beginning with a traumatic grief journey over 4 years: two miscarriages; an unexpected divorce from a Marine Corps Officer; home, friends, family, and community loss; sudden multiple family deaths; cyberbullying; and massive stolen assets. These circumstances resulted in all the discouragement, devastation, and pain you can imagine, whether you’re on the spectrum or not. I LIVED trauma and grief. When searching for help professionally, I discovered a major gap in care for those who had been through this type of trauma and understood how my brain works. I had no advocate in the process and was completely alone emotionally and in support. Not even the church knew how to help me through Job level losses and grief. I was given unhelpful advice and nothing that helped me move forward. 
 I cried out to the Lord in the dark caves of my circumstances. He answered. After guiding me through a clear path of my healing, He worked on my heart and placed in it a deep empathy, compassion, and desire to walk others through coaching into post-traumatic growth. He led me to places to train, understand mental health, multicultural, generational, and historical trauma (which I also experienced), and go deeper into the understanding of neuroscience and the whole person healing process. He faithfully sent clients for me to work with which is a blessing as it gave me so much experience and fruit from my labor. I continue to increase my learning through certification education and pursue where God is leading me in this Kingdom calling. To come alongside you with what God’s will is for your life towards an impactful mission. 
 My clients are of various backgrounds including the culture of autism, neurodivergence, and the faith and church hurt. They are experiencing spiritual breakthroughs in their faith, getting their joy back, regaining strength and resilience through tough circumstances, learning practical organization and executive functioning skills, and finding their God designed and inspired purpose. Anything that helps them live their best life, we address! I help parents of kids and adult children with disabilities and autism, support marriages and individuals, and advocate for anyone who needs advocacy WITH the government and judicial systems in place and the medical fields. 
 I believe that YOU ARE DESIGNED for something special because God placed you on this planet. We can figure that out and I can’t wait to execute those Holy Spirit and biblical inspired goals and plans together! Note: I am always looking for sponsors to cover my fees for others who I work with on low income and SSA incomes.
