The Quiet Rebellion of Healing is a guide for understanding neurodivergent trauma and the path to healing.
This is not a book that asks you to be less of yourself to heal.
It’s an invitation—to listen inward, to honour your rhythms, to meet the parts of you shaped by both neurodivergence and trauma with gentleness.
Crafted by a neurodivergent trauma survivor and coach who walks this path too, this guide weaves together neurodiversity affirming principles, psychoeducation, and embodiment.
It offers space—not just to process what’s been carried too long—but to rediscover the wisdom already inside you.
Inside, you’ll find:
✺ Gentle prompts for exploring emotions, dissociation, and nervous system patterns
✺ Support for untangling where your neurodivergent traits end and trauma begins
✺ Pages that affirm your identity, honour your autonomy, and never pathologise your pain
✺ A framework rooted in neurodivergent lived experience.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. It's a guide built around the understanding that your nervous system, identity, and life experience matter—and that healing must meet you where you are.
Whether you're just beginning your trauma recovery or continuing your healing journey, this trauma recovery guide is here to walk alongside you—no fixing, no pathologising, just support, understanding, and care.
This book is illustrated by Kristy Tidey, the neurodivergent artist behind Tidal Ember Art. Kristy brings her lived experience of trauma into her creative practice, using art as a powerful form of healing and self-expression. Her illustrations throughout the book reflect deep emotional insight, offering visual language to the inner worlds many of us navigate. You can find more of Kristy’s art at Tidal Ember Art.
