“Our team has genuinely enjoyed collaborating with ECS through the 10-week PDA consultation group. Liz balanced sharing of her clinical and lived expertise with inviting our team to offer up their experiences and understanding. Her neurodiversity affirming approach extended to interactions with the team that included creating a sense of safety within the group, welcoming questions and conversation, and providing notes after each session. We highly recommend Liz Emen for anyone seeking a nuanced, neurodiversity-affirming, social justice-centered dive into the PDA experience.”
