How to Join
JOIN THE INTEREST LIST
Share your preferences so I can better understand what group may be the best fit for you (such as availability, group type, and in-person vs virtual).
BRIEF CONSULTATION CALL
After you submit the form, I will reach out to schedule a short consultation call to explore fit, answer questions, and determine appropriate group placement.
INTAKE PROCESS
If it feels like a good fit, you’ll complete intake forms through the secure client portal and attend a 30-minute intake session to review goals, needs, and group expectations.
GROUP FORMATION & START DATE
Once enough interest is gathered for a specific cohort, I will reach out to coordinate scheduling and share final group details.
These groups might be a good fit if you:
- identify as a woman (cis, trans, or nonbinary welcome)
- are ADHD, autistic, AuDHD, or neurodivergent (self-diagnosis counts)
- are drawn to creativity, fandoms, games, stories, and deep niche interests
- experience cycles of burnout, overwhelm, or shutdown
- feel like your going through life on HARD mode
- are tired of masking, overthinking, or trying to keep up
- feel more like a side character in everyone else's story
- want connection with people who just get it
You were never meant to follow the main storyline
Most neurodivergent women spend years trying to “figure out the rules” of a game no one ever explained to them.
So you learned to:
- mask to fit in
- push through burnout
- overthink every interaction
- assume everyone else got the manual you didn't
And somewhere along the way, you started wondering if you were the problem.
You were just playing a game designed for a different kind of brain.
Unscripted Side Quests exists for the moments where you stop trying to win the main quest…and start wondering what else is possible.
What are Unscripted Side Quests all about?
Unscripted Side Quests are therapy groups for neurodivergent women, run by neurodivergent psychologist Dr. Jamie Freda. They blend evidence-based psychological support with a creative, nerdy, identity-affirming group experience.
They are:
- structured, intentional, and therapeutically grounded
- emotionally safe and neurodivergent-friendly
- small, curated, and closed (no drop-ins)
- a space where you can move, fidget, pause, or go quiet without explanation
- a place for real conversations without pressure to perform
This is therapy designed to support you as you are, not who you think you’re “supposed” to be.
What we can explore together:
Many neurodivergent women have learned to mask to get through life. Over time, it can be hard to tell what’s you and what’s performance.
We explore what masking has looked like for you, what it has cost, and how to reconnect with yourself at a pace that feels safe.
Burnout often comes from pushing past your limits for too long.
We focus on recognizing your patterns, understanding your nervous system, and finding ways to rest and recover that actually work for you.
Traditional coping strategies don’t always work for neurodivergent people.
We explore how your emotions show up and build flexible, realistic ways to regulate that fit how your brain works.
Struggles with focus, follow-through, and organization often come with a lot of self-criticism.
We shift away from “trying harder” and toward understanding your patterns and building supports that actually fit.
Feeling different or alone is common…and heavy.
This group offers space to feel understood, hear your experiences reflected, and connect without needing to over-explain.
Many expectations weren’t built for how your brain works.
We explore what fits, what doesn’t, and what it might look like to build a life that actually works for you.
These are a few of our favorite things...
