Life can be unpredictable, messy and overwhelming at times and we all need help from time to time. Whether you're navigating big life changes, study/work stress, ADHD, relationship issues or learning how to set boundaries, I'm here to support you. I'm especially passionate about supporting neurodivergent women and non-binary folks to create a life and routine that works with their brain rather than against it. Together, we can create practical strategies that make sense for your life. I provide flexible telehealth counselling services (phone or Zoom), offering a safe space to explore what's been on your mind.
As a queer and neurodivergent person, my priority is always to provide safe, judgement-free & inclusive counselling for everyone. My therapeutic approach is neurodivergent-affirming, queer-affirming, disability-affirming and culturally sensitive.
I am currently accepting new clients (please note: adolescent clients must be 16 or older). If you have any questions (or you’re just unsure where to start) feel free to reach out!
Call or Nikki Strong now for a free 15 minute consultation - (02) 4077 2979
