At NeuroKind Education, we believe that inclusion begins with understanding. We’re a Queensland-based professional development provider, offering practical, evidence-informed training on neurodiversity and mental health for schools and workplaces. Our work is grounded in both clinical expertise and lived experience. Our mission is to improve the lives of neurodivergent AND neurotypical individuals by fostering environments of understanding, empathy, and inclusive education. Dr. Dominique Hannah is a psychiatrist with over 20 years of clinical experience, an autistic woman, and the parent of a neurodivergent child. She brings deep professional insight combined with firsthand understanding of neurodivergent identity and student mental health. Hannah McLaughlin, NeuroKind’s co-founder, is a qualified lawyer and the mother of a 6-year-old autistic child. She understands the real-world challenges families face navigating school systems and advocating for inclusion. Together, we founded NeuroKind to help schools and workplaces move beyond awareness to real, empathy-driven action.
