About Me

About Kate

I created KLC Innovations after over 15 years of working in education and public service systems with neurodivergent teens, families, and adults who were doing everything they were “supposed” to do — yet still felt overwhelmed, stuck, exhausted, or constantly behind.

Again and again, I saw capable people struggling inside systems that did not match how their brains worked.

My background includes post graduate education and experience in psychology, special education, human development, executive functioning support, and transition programming. I have worked with neurodivergent individuals across school, home, and real-life settings. Over time, my work shifted away from compliance-based models and toward collaborative, brain-based support focused on reducing overwhelm and building sustainable independence.

Today, I work virtually with:

• teens navigating executive functioning and communication challenges

• young adults transitioning into college, work, and independent life

• adults managing burnout, overwhelm, parenting, routines, and identity after ADHD/autism diagnoses

I help clients identify what is creating friction, simplify systems, adjust expectations where needed, and build strategies that work within their real capacity, not an idealized version of it.

I believe quality support should increase independence over time, not create dependence on services. I have designed structured fade out plans to ensure skills sustain on their own.

Clients work with me briefly to learn the skills to move through a transition or period of overwhelm. My door is always open for return clients during life changes, burnout, or when systems need redesigned.

At the center of all of my work is the belief that knowledge is power and understanding your brain changes everything.

Not because life suddenly becomes easy — but because it becomes possible to stop fighting yourself and start building systems that actually support you.
