Ideal Candidate
* Be calm, emotionally attuned, and responsive, with a strong commitment to neuroaffirmative practice.
* Demonstrate understanding of sensory processing, anxiety, and the impact of transitions and change on neurodivergent individuals.
* Be confident in taking a flexible and intuitive approach, rather than task-focused support.
* Have a genuine interest in building connection through shared interests, particularly outdoors and nature-based activities.
* Value autonomy and agency, always working with the young person, not on or to them.
