I'm Dr. Leia Greenslade, AuDHD social worker and PhD, supporting neurodivergent adults to understand themselves, find meaning, and build lives that feel genuinely theirs.
With 18+ years experience, I work with people carrying burnout, grief, identity questions, or that persistent sense of adapting to a world not built for them. I also support parents and allies wanting to better understand the neurodivergent people in their lives.
You set the pace. No fixing. No judgment. Just honest, affirming support from someone who gets it, not just professionally, but personally.
I can help you explore your neurodivergent identity, understand your needs, and build a life that fits who you actually are.I can help you explore your neurodivergent identity, understand your needs, and build a life that fits who you actually are. For families, I offer support to better understand and advocate for your neurodivergent
I tailor every session to you, drawing from a range of therapeutic and theoretical approaches that honour your neurotype, life experience, and goals. There’s no one-size-fits-all here. Just thoughtful, responsive support built around who you are. All sessions are online, Australia-wide.
