Alice Greenwood is a neurodivergent parent, educator, and clinician with a focus on helping families understand complexity and build lives that are safer and more sustainable when systems, bodies, or expectations don’t align.

She is a speech pathologist and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), with experience across child development, parent–infant feeding, communication, primary education, allied health, and health research administration. This background informs a practical understanding of how families move between healthcare, education, and support systems — and where misunderstandings commonly arise.

Alice’s work is also informed by lived experience. She is an AuDHD woman with chronic health conditions, and the mother of three neurodivergent, medically complex children. She has navigated diagnostic processes, school systems, sensory and emotional support needs, medical decision-making, and the ongoing balance between advocacy and wellbeing.

Together, this training and lived experience shape an approach that is contextual, non-judgemental, and grounded in respect. Across her roles — as parent, clinician, breastfeeding counsellor, educator, and homeschooler — Alice works from neurodiversity-affirming principles that prioritise autonomy, connection, and dignity.

Her areas of focus include:

• autistic and ADHD experiences across the lifespan

• supporting neurodivergent parents

• family-centred, autonomy-supportive care

• infant feeding and lactation, particularly in neurodivergent families

• school advocacy, burnout, and sustainable supports

• bridging research, clinical frameworks, and lived experience

• creating safer environments for children with complex needs
