Some people have a pet. Nikki Dinwiddie has a neurodivergent household that includes two Great Danes, a goat in perimenopause, and what she describes as feathered roommates. She is a therapist. This tracks.
Nikki and I get into what it actually looks like when the whole household is neurodivergent, kids, husband, dogs, and possibly the goats. We talk about animals as an autism special interest, why parrots are feathered roommates and not pets, and where each of us falls on what I'm calling the autistic animal spectrum. Spoiler: we are not on the same side.
We also get into goats with a PDA profile, elephants who understand their own mortality, orcas organizing to flip yachts, and what animals know about us that we consistently underestimate. Plus Nikki closes us out with a snake fact that I was not prepared for and neither are you.
Nikki practices in Concord, New Hampshire and is licensed in both New Hampshire and Massachusetts, specializing in autism, ADHD, and the LGBTQ community. She can be found at balancementalhealth.com.
