Occupational Therapists:
Hi there! I'm Amanda - an autistic and ADHD occupational therapist who believes in the power of embracing our unique brains. As a proud UT Austin grad (Hook 'em! 🤘) with my Master's in OT from TWU, I'm on a mission to create a world where neurodivergent folks can truly thrive.
Here in Austin, I partner with adults to unlock their potential and transform their daily lives. Whether you're seeking support with executive functioning, sensory processing, or workplace strategies, I get it - both professionally and personally. Through worldwide telehealth services, I offer neurodivergent-affirming care that celebrates your strengths while tackling life's challenges.
I also collaborate with Austin-area businesses to build genuinely inclusive workplaces where neurodivergent talent can flourish. Because representation matters, and who better to guide neurodiversity initiatives than someone who lives this experience?
When I'm not geeking out about brain-based strategies, you'll find me problem-solving on the bouldering walls at ABP, expressing creativity through watercolors, or dreaming up tiny home designs. (Yes, my special interests definitely shine through in my downtime!)
Ready to work with someone who truly understands your neural wiring? Let's chat! Book a free consultation and discover how we can work together to create sustainable strategies that honor your unique way of being.
Authentically yours,
Amanda Hunt, MOT, OTR
