About

An Educator, A Student, A Friend, and more…

Elyse is an Educator working in Oregon. Currently, she is pursuing an Ed.D. in Organizational Leadership in Special Education. She also holds an M.Ed. in Special Education, a B.S. in Early Childhood Education, and certificates in Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intervention Specialist. She takes a special interest in psychology, symptomatology, and helping others to learn about their diagnoses so they can better advocate for themselves.

This blog is meant to be an explanation of my personal experiences and bits of research I find on the internet.

I am not a therapist, psychologist, or psychiatrist. The skills described are things I’ve used with my symptoms and other skills from the internet (maybe a few nuggets sprinkled in from my own therapist). The best way to find how to cope with your own symptoms? Go to therapy. Speak with a professional.
