Claudia Andrea
Reveco Zamora
Occupational Therapist & Sexologist
Chile
As a specialist dedicated to the well-being of neurodivergent individuals, with a particular focus on the autistic spectrum, I have devoted over a decade to facilitating
processes of self-awareness, identification, and diagnosis. My therapeutic approach is centered on the individual and grounded in mental health, gender perspective, intersectionality, and rights. Throughout
my career, I have integrated various tools such as Sensory Integration, Occupational Therapy, Trauma-informed Therapy, Sexology Sciences, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), Innovation Strategies,
and Empowerment.
Furthermore, I am actively engaged in specialized training in Compassion Focused Therapy and am currently pursuing my second Master's in Neuroscience of Happiness. I emphasize my commitment as a
trans affirmative professional, supporting diversity in all its manifestations.
In my role as a university lecturer in postgraduate and specialization programs, I lead modules on the Autistic Spectrum and Transition to Active Adult Life in the Master's in Didactic Strategies in Autism at U.SEK. I have been interviewed and contributed as an OT-Sexologist and disseminator in notable publications such as
Revista Paula (La Tercera newspaper, Chile), El Mostrador
(digital newspaper, Chile), and Her Global Impact Magazine (Innovation Academy HGI, International). Additionally, I had the honor of participating in the documentary "
Extraordinaries: united in neurodiversity" produced in Chile by Kimun, a creative production company.
With experience in university teaching for Occupational Therapy, Social Work, and Psychology programs, as well as conducting training sessions for professional teams in both public and private healthcare services and education teams in various settings, urban and rural, my passion for learning and teaching is
evident in every aspect of my work.
As an additional
note, I actively participate in the autistic and high-capacity community, identifying
more broadly within the neuroqueer community. This central aspect of my identity adds significant value to my work, as I tirelessly strive for, with, and alongside my community.
