Genevieve DeWitt, OTR/L

As a late-realized neurodivergent individual, I am passionate about connecting with others through their unique stories and supporting them on their journeys, no matter what that looks like. With a background in psychology and Spanish, I strive to help individuals deepen their self-awareness and address unmet needs, including sensory processing, executive functioning, and emotional regulation. My goal is to empower others to understand themselves more fully and create meaningful change in their lives through a personal, therapeutic connection.

Outside of work, I love spending time adventuring outdoors with my family, playing video games, and exploring fantasy worlds whether in books, media, or through cosplay. I have strong interests in exploring human nature, our ties to the past, and the primal instincts that shape us. I enjoy integrating this understanding into my work, which often provides more meaningful support for others. I am thrilled to bring my enthusiasm, personal insights, and professional expertise to Diverge!
