Life can be a little wild and we all need help from time to time. Whether you're navigating a recent ADHD diagnosis, feeling stressed/burnt out or wanting to set better boundaries with others (and yourself), I'm here to support you. I'm especially passionate about working with ADHD and Autism in women and non-binary folks & supporting them 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.
My work involves a range of approaches (DBT, ACT, Attachment theory, CBT etc) but I primarily adopt an integrative approach; meaning that the therapeutic approach is tailored to you and your specific needs and goals. As a neurodivergent and queer-identifying person, my priority is always to provide safe, judgement-free & inclusive counselling for everyone.
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
