It’s a big step to come to therapy, especially if you’ve had a lifetime of feeling different and not understood or heard. Maybe you experience anxiety and it’s starting to impact your life? Perhaps you have poor self-esteem and would like to set better boundaries? Have you or someone you care about recently received an autism or ADHD diagnosis and you’re having complicated feelings, not sure what to do now? Are you keen to please others but really harsh on yourself? I regularly work with people who answer 'yes' to these types of question.
I use counselling, CBT, coaching and compassion-based approaches and I’ll meet you just as you are, so we can work together in ways that suit you. I’ll draw on my own experience of neurodivergence and 25 years in education & autism outreach, and you’ll be in a space of non-judgement, where you’re free to be yourself and are acknowledged as the expert on you.
If you want to learn more about yourself, and learn strategies that help you get your needs met, why not get in touch? We can talk about how we might work together towards your goals, whatever they are.

I can help you make sense of your diagnosis. We can reconsider your past through a neurodivergent lens and develop understanding & strategies, so that you might better get your needs met in the future, and become more self-compassionate. And as a motherless daughter myself, I can support you in understanding the lifelong impact of mother loss and finding ways to integrate this into your life now.
