about

The Practice

Intersoma is a holistic, neurodiversity-affirming counselling practice dedicated to supporting parents, caregivers, and couples navigating the unique journey of raising neurodivergent children and teens.

We respond to the complex, layered experience of navigating neurodivergence in a world not built for it. Our mission is to walk alongside you to reduce overwhelm and isolation, foster deep understanding, and strengthen your relationship, helping partners and families stay connected through life's most challenging seasons.

The Founder

Intersoma was founded by Hannah, a Masters-qualified psychotherapist, group facilitator, and experienced practitioner. Her clinical foundation was built across non-government organisations in South Australia and Queensland, supporting survivors of interpersonal, complex, and systemic trauma where she frequently walked alongside mothers and caregivers navigating the intricacies of complex-needs and neurodivergent parenting.

Today, Hannah’s practice merges evidence-based skills and trauma-informed care with her authentic lived experience as a neurodivergent caregiver, mother, and long-term partner navigating the realities of family life.

At Intersoma, compassion sits at the heart of our non-pathologising, human-centered practice. We honour the autonomy, safety, and uniqueness of your family system through a deeply supportive, attachment-oriented lens.
