Neurodiversity

What we need is some crazy people; look where the normals have got us.
—George Bernard Shaw

I have been interested in everything that is "different" ever since I can remember. I even suspect that it has led me, among other things, to become a homeopath – that is, to make "thinking differently" my profession, because as a homeopath I am looking for the unusual, peculiar and individual in order to be able to prescribe a suitable homeopathic remedy.

Accordingly, I am interested in the neurodiverse spectrum. Because the approach of ‘neurodiversity’ – that a ‘differently wired brain’ is not sick, but completely healthy but different – also corresponds to the fundamental homeopathic principle of individuality. Added to this is my personal expertise, because I myself am neurosensitiv and I have a partner with ADHD in my life: I am familiar with the ingenuity and problems of the spectrum.

A hurray for neurological diversity! I welcome neurosensitivity, ADD and ADHD, the autism spectrum, giftedness, obsessive thoughts, dyslexia and dyscalculia and the associated issues such as concentration problems, sensory overload, restlessness, compulsive behaviour or social withdrawal into my practice.
