Larissa Wright
Content and Quality Editor
She/Her
True to the novelty-seeking nature of her ADHD, Larissa has numerous professional backgrounds, having worked as an English teacher, an instructional designer, a jazz singer, a counsellor and hypnotherapist, a life model, a workshop facilitator, a petsitter, a mental health writer, a virtual reality Twitch streamer, and for the past six years, an editor. She has also travelled and lived all over the world, including seven years in Latin America. She has degrees in creative and professional writing and psychological science, as well as diplomas in transpersonal counselling and clinical hypnotherapy.
Larissa had an unusual obsession with reading, writing and language at a really young age, and says she ‘fell into’ editing after completing her degree, finding it a natural fit for her strengths and temperament. A late diagnosis in her forties has helped her understand that she didn’t ‘fail at being a normal adult’. She wants to live in a world in which diverse and nontraditional paths through life and work are celebrated, facilitated and validated.
