Welcome to BrainTypes
Removing the barriers to performance across the range of cognitive abilities
What is the problem?
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) refers to a group of complex neurodevelopment disorders. Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) also contain a multitude of cognitive strengths. Yet their official acronyms all end in the letter D, counter-positioning 20-40% of the population with others who are labeled neurotypical.
Employers categorize these diagnoses as disabilities. Yet it appears that it is only a disability because society makes it a disability by defining what should be a typical brain.
Our Vision
Cognitive abilities and disabilities can be a barrier to success today.
At Brain Types, we are shaping a world where neurodiversity is no longer a disability.
We understand that everyone is a neurodiverse thinker. The number of people officially labeled as neurodiverse continues to climb. The closer we look, the less we find a typical or normative state.
We need a different conversation; one focused on how we make better decisions and be kinder to each other. We believe that harnessing the magic of everyone's unique brains will help build a better future.
