Laura Hellfeld is a nurse, educator, speaker, and author dedicated to improving support for neurodivergent and disabled people. With a background in nursing, public health, community development, and designing inclusive programmes and events, they combine clinical knowledge with lived experience to create practical, compassionate resources that promote dignity, autonomy, and belonging. Laura writes for parents, carers, educators, school staff, and health and social care professionals on topics including toileting, eating, sleep, hygiene, emotional wellbeing, and everyday life. Their work explores how to better support neurodivergent and disabled people across home, education, healthcare, and community settings. Laura encourages readers to move beyond behaviour-based explanations and instead understand how sensory processing, communication, health, environment, and nervous system regulation shape daily experiences. Originally from Southern California and now living in Yorkshire with their family, Laura is passionate about making evidence-informed, neuro-affirming information accessible to everyone.
