Kristy Forbes - Intune Pathways
Kristy Forbes is an Australian-based autism and neurodiversity support specialist with extensive experience working with clients nationally and internationally. She is formally identified as autistic, ADHD, and has a PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) expression of Autism. Kristy is also a parent to four neurodivergent children, giving her a unique perspective as both a professional and someone with lived experience.
Kristy’s work focuses on supporting neurodivergent individuals, their families, and professionals in various fields who work with neurodivergent people. She offers private consultations, develops and delivers programs, and engages in speaking and writing, with a special interest in PDA-related trauma and burnout. Her approach emphasizes understanding autism as a natural variation of human neurology, promoting acceptance, and supporting individuals to thrive by adapting their environment rather than trying to change the person.
