Hi, I’m Detty — a mum, a wife, a crocheter, a tea-lover, and someone living with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
I created The FND Podcast as a place to have real, honest chats about life with this condition — the parts that are scary, the parts that are frustrating, and the parts that are still full of light.
Here, you’ll hear from people with lived experience, carers, professionals, and advocates who all bring their stories, their insights, and their heart to the table. We talk about what it’s like to be diagnosed with FND, what recovery can really look like, how to manage flare-ups, navigate work, raise a family, and just keep showing up — one breath, one step, one day at a time.
This podcast isn’t about perfection. It’s about connection.
It’s about making space for every part of this journey — especially the parts that often get left out of the conversation.
Whether you’re living with FND, supporting someone who is, or just trying to understand it better — you’re welcome here.
So, grab a cuppa, get comfy, and join me for conversations that are warm, raw, and real.
You’re not alone.

Talking to Jason Kreuzman Pediatric FND and OT: The FND Podcast
In this insightful and compassionate episode of The FND Podcast, Detty is joined by Jason Kreuzman, a pediatric occupational therapist based in St. Louis, Missouri, who specialises in treating children with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
Together, they explore what occupational therapy really is, how it differs from physiotherapy, and the powerful role it can play in helping children and teens with FND rebuild their lives — one meaningful activity at a time. Jason shares how he adapts therapy for young people, how to support kids returning to school, and why building confidence and safety is key to long-term recovery.
Whether you’re a parent of a newly diagnosed child, a healthcare professional wanting to understand FND better, or someone looking for practical tools and real hope, this episode is full of heart, helpful insights, and supportive guidance.
✨ Topics covered: – What occupational therapy looks like for FND – Explaining FND to children in age-appropriate ways – Supporting school transitions and daily life – Creating personalised care plans for families – Raising awareness in the healthcare system – Free resources now available for pediatric FND care
This one’s a must-listen for families, carers, educators, and therapists — and a powerful reminder that support for kids with FND does exist.
