Join Dr. Holmes as she interviews Robin Tate, a life coach, and NeuroDiverse Couples' coach. Today we discuss Neurodiversity and strategies for executive functioning.
Robin describes a little about herself:
I am a professionally trained Teacher and Coach who is passionate about providing the best experience to my clients. As well as training, I have an in-depth understanding of the impacts of living with an Asperger's Profile and/or ADHD in a world that is neurotypical. My approach to coaching is client-centered and strength-based. I join with clients to work through obstacles and meet self-determined goals. For Neurodivergent adults, challenges are often rooted in neurological differences which impact communication, executive function, and/or sensory regulation. As an experienced educator, I also have an understanding of learning disabilities, learning styles, accommodations, and a toolbox of strategies.
Coaching and education services are complementary to a variety of other professional services. When needed, I easily collaborate with other professionals and family members.
I meet with clients via online video calls (worldwide). I also meet with clients in person, as agreed to be necessary and safe on a case-by-case basis.

About Dr. Vermeulen in his own words.
Peter got a Bachelor in Family Sciences (Brussels, 1985) and in the same year also a Master in Psychology and Pedagogical Sciences at the oldest university of Belgium, the University of Leuven. Because he got the taste of studying at the oldest universities, Peter started to study at the oldest university of The Netherlands, Leiden, while already working in the field of autism. There he obtained his PhD in 2002 with his research on late diagnosis in people on the autism spectrum with above average IQs.
So, officially it is: Dr. Vermeulen Peter, MSc, PhD but Peter just prefers to be called Peter
Peter started his career in the field of autism in 1987, working for the Vlaamse Vereniging Autisme (Flemish Autism Society) as diagnostician and home trainer for families on autistic children.
He later become the director of the home training center and started gradually to share his experiences via presentations and books.
Peter wrote more than 15 books, some of them translated into more than 10 languages.
Peter works for ‘sterkmakers in autisme’ (strongmakers in autism), a non-profit organization that makes people and organizations strong in their ambition towards full inclusion of autistic people.
Peter created Autism in Context, where autism is seen in context. He is teaching, training and presenting all over the globe and in his work he focuses on two topics in particular: the autistic thinking (autism as context blindness) and happiness & well-being in autism.
In 2019 Peter received the Passwerk Life Time Achievement Award for his more than 30 years contribution to the autism community in Flanders.
When Peter is not presenting, writing, driving or flying around for his job, he can usually be found on one of his 4 bicycles, trying to imitate Tour de France winners, hereby being oblivious to his age and physical state. When tired from cycling, he can be found at home, with his wife and their dog (which actually is more a Gremlin than a dog). Or he is playing with his 3 grandchildren. Because the Gremlin loves the beach, Peter often spends his weekends at the seaside, savouring seafood and – being a descendant of a brewing family – enjoying a good beer.

Grace and Stephanie discuss helping couples to gain a better understanding of who they each are, who their partner is, and how their neurological differences affect their relationship.
Understanding the differences in neurology is crucial for anyone from coaches, ministers to counselors. Additional training and coursework are needed to better understand this couple's differences.

About Grace:
Grace Myhill, MSW. AANE Director of The Peter M. Friedman Neurodiverse Couples Institute, AANE Director of Couples and Partners Services, and Neurodiverse Couples Coach in private practice.
Grace's Approach:
Working with neurodiverse couples in which one partner has an Asperger’s/Autism Spectrum Profile is my specialty. I understand the unique strengths and the challenges
that come with these relationships. We cannot change our neurologies, but I can help couples to gain a better understanding of who they each are, who their partner is, and
how their neurological differences affect their relationship.
My approach is to first help couples understand the importance of neurology and what it means to be a neurodiverse couple. This includes getting to know how you and your
partner each think and perceive the world. I help couples identify how their neurological similarities and differences affect the dynamics and interaction of their relationship.
Together we can identify areas for skill-building and problem-solving. There are several ways you can work with me: individually, together with your partner, or in a group. We can meet by phone or video conferencing.
For more information visit my website www.gracemyhill.com or email [email protected] or call me 617-504-3116.
Grace works with various types of relationships and partnerships.
