Jennifer Kemp is a Clinical Psychologist based in Adelaide, Australia. Her neurodiversity-affirming approach is founded on her own experience of being late-diagnosed as Autistic and an ADHDer, the experiences of her neurodivergent clients, and the latest research. In her therapeutic practice and when training other therapists, Jennifer weaves together acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with compassion-focused approaches to develop greater self-acceptance, self-compassion, and pride in their neurodivergent identity.
