Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
Please know that the contents of this web site are going through thorough revisions at this time. I had to temporarily take a (long) break from this work over much of this year due to severe burnout (not directly caused by COVID-19 but exacerbated by it). I am slowly returning to it after having wasted most of 2020.
Additionally, I am considering several new changes to the offerings in light of the prolonged COVID-19 situation and the present conditions of the autistic community, faith communities, and the economy at large. This includes exploring ways to offer no-fee and low-fee services to the autistic folks as well as to congregations and ministries (both of which bear the blunt of the economic downturn) while funding this work in some other ways.
If you need me right away, probably the best way to reach me is by Keybase or Telegram.
Thanks for your patience, and see you on the other side!

The mission of Mind Geographic is to equip the autistic and other neurodiverse people to become the prophets and guides of the coming age, and to build communities of faiths that recognize and amplify the invaluable contributions of the autistic community to the world while putting the experience of the neurodiverse individuals front and center.
Choose your adventure:
I am autistic (or maybe I am).Spiritual direction/companionship
Spiritual direction supports you in deepening your faith/spiritual life. Despite the word "direction," I am not here to give you directions. Rather, using active listening and thought-provoking questions, we explore and clarify your belief systems, your values, and your goals.

As autistics, we're quite a gift to the world, the silent elite squad that this planet needs to save itself (think Greta Thunberg). We smell bullshit from a hundred miles away. We've got no time for "nuances," hypocrisies and other excuses. We tend to be brutally logical and rational, yet exceedingly capable of creative out-of-the-box thinking. We're very much detail-oriented but we see the big picture.
You can be the next great prophet, world-changer, innovator, or culture-maker. It's time that we stopped apologizing to neurotypicals for not fitting into their narrow social norms. Neurodiversity is the next frontier in religious communities. Yet, neurodiversity is, unfortunately, discouraged in most communal expressions of spiritual life. We've been told to shut up, that we're making people "uncomfortable." We've been made unwelcome. We've been coerced into silly woo-woo exercises, excessive emotionalism, ableist mindset, and rigid gender norms that made no sense to us. They operate from assumptions that are entirely foreign to how our minds process things. Come to think of it, every one of us has a rich, unique, complex terrain within our mind. Especially in the neurodiverse community, we often think of our minds as a world in its own right. Trek the amazing inner geography of your mind and soul like an explorer. I'm simply here to facilitate your quest and to help make sense of it all, building upon your own uniqueness as the foundation for your strengths. And as I meet each of you, I know that we're building an army of prophets at this challenging juncture in human history. Come join me. In solidarity, Willow. |

Mind Geographic wishes to acknowledge this land on which we operate. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Tsinuk (Chinook), Clatskanie, Atfalati (Tualatin), and Stl’pulmsh (Cowlitz) nations. Today, this place is still the home to many indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
