Join Dr. Holmes as she interviews Jeremy Hamburgh, referred to as the Hitch for the autistic and special needs community by The Atlantic in 2013. The article by Rula AL-Nasrawi quotes, "Jeremy Hamburgh is a New York-based dating coach for both neurotypical people and people with disabilities. He’s a Hitch for those who can hardly flirt, and he spends hours hiding behind bookshelves and potted plants in bars and restaurants as his clients attempt to initiate conversation, then offers feedback later. Hamburgh also leads workshops at Adaptations, a program through the Manhattan Jewish Community Center that teaches life skills to people with developmental disorders." (Atlantic, Nov. 25, 2013). In a pre-show interview, Dr. Holmes asked about Hamburgh's journey into relational coaching and he stated that in spending time with the autistic community there were much he did not know and was willing to talk to the autistic community and learn what works for them and what they are looking for in relationships. Hamburgh's approach is not about masking or neuro-typicalizing but helping his clients be the best version of themselves to live an authentic life in friendships and romantic relationships.
