Princess and the Pea Podcast
Annie Crowe with Dr Joey Lawrence
Episode 5 - Psychologists Can Be Autistic Too
"Yesterday was Autistic Pride Day. A perfect weekend to post this neurodiversity-affirming episode, where I talk to fellow neurokin and autistic clinical psychologist, Dr Joey (aka @nd_psych on TikTok)!
We talk about how she came to find out about her own neurodivergence after over a decade of psychology studies and professional experience. We also discuss therapy and the importance of feeling safe to unmask. I loved this convo and how it had a true mix of professional and lived experience - the way it should be!
Dr Joey is a perfect example of why we need more lived experience in clinical settings and leading the research on our community."
