My ideal clients are neurodivergent teens, young adults and adults who are trying to understand themselves after a long time of feeling misunderstood. They may come to therapy feeling burnt out, masked, overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to explain their needs without over-apologising. Many are navigating the messy overlap between neurodivergence, chronic illness, sensory sensitivity, executive dysfunction, identity, relationships and the exhaustion of trying to function in environments that were not built with them in mind.
