Neurodivergent support worker. Protocol designer. Building tools for the brain I live in.
I'm Jamie. I run Neuro Support from Christchurch, New Zealand. I'm neurodivergent — ADHD. This isn't just professional knowledge. It's personal.
Human Services degree. Psychology minor. Years of experience onboarding clients to Individualised Funding through Manawanui and other hosts. Featured by Manawanui for the work I do.
I built the Neuro Support Protocol because I got tired of watching neurodivergent adults cycle through support services that didn't understand how their brains work. Big agencies rotate staff, train from a medical model, assign whoever's available.
I wanted something that actually worked. So I built it.
I've spent years working in disability support, first within agencies, then independently. The pattern was always the same: good people, wrong tools, wrong framework.
The medical model treats neurodivergence as a deficit to compensate for. The Neuro Support Protocol treats it as an architecture to design around. Specific gaps, specific solutions, no moralising about willpower or effort.
I test everything on myself first. Every tool, every system, every strategy. If I wouldn't use it on a bad executive function day, I don't teach it.
Good support builds independence. Not dependency. My job is to work myself out of a job.
Lived experience. I navigate ADHD every day. I know the difference between advice that sounds good and strategies that actually survive a low-energy Tuesday.
Technical capability. I build with modern tools — AI, Notion, automation, iPhone configuration. Not as a novelty, but because these tools solve the exact problems executive function failure creates.
Sector knowledge. I understand Individualised Funding inside and out. I've onboarded clients, worked with IF hosts, and navigated the system from both sides. This means I can help you get the right support funded properly.
One person, not a roster. You get me. Every session. Consistency compounds. I carry context from session to session. You never start from scratch.
Bachelor of Applied Science in Human Services with a minor in Psychology. The knowledge to back up the experience — not the other way around.
