Being late diagnosed neurodivergent (ASD and ADHD) has given me lots of life experience of living with "otherness", how I adapted to fit the world I lived in, and what it was like to rediscover who I am, and always was.
For waitlist, please go to talkhelps/contact. Many of my clients are neurodivergent, whether already diagnosed or looking into it. I will support you to look at what difficulties you have now which could use a new direction. We will explore what you would like to change, and look at what solutions work for you. Sometimes this will include looking back to discover repeated behaviours, areas where you have been hurt many times, and begin to look at what you can do differently to find a happier and healthier way to live your life. People and relationships often come into the work, and can show further areas where you could be happier.

Through my own journey, I’ve found myself with the wonderful privilege of supporting ADHDers to feel happier in themselves and more at ease in life and relationships.
I help ADHD adults, teens, and children (11+) to discover relief from overwhelm, ease from anxiety, and courage to be true to themselves, for greater fulfilment in life and relationships. Perhaps you have a sense you struggle more than others, which can leave you feeling ashamed and unsure of yourself. With an unruly mind and relentless anxiety, you can feel held back from what’s important to you in life and relationships. Some part of you knows there's a happier more fulfilled 'you' desperate to get out. I offer a nurturing and empowering space, where we'll discover who you are with more clarity, ease, and trust in yourself.

Hi. You're probably here because you are finding life tough. Life can be so hard, and it can feel even harder finding help. After years of working in Education and the NHS, I know how tricky it can be to access support. I aim to fill that gap. I work particularly with neurodivergence ( ADHD, autism etc): with young people struggling + using tricky coping strategies; with parents who feel lost + overwhelmed; and with adults who are for the first time learning who they are + need help to figure that all out. I also specialise in eating disorders, self harm, body image, anxiety, OCD, trauma. Maybe I can help?

I am a neurodivergent-aware counsellor and have worked with a range of neurodivergent people, mainly autism and ADHD.
My approach is primarily person-centred and humanistic: I offer a non-judgmental reflective approach with acceptance and understanding, allowing you the space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I use an integrative approach and draw on a range of theoretical modalities such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and Creative Therapy. I work with individuals of any age over 16 years and charge £60 per 50 minute session. There are no upper or lower limits to the number of sessions. I find weekly sessions more beneficial providing time for reflection before we next meet while also providing continuity.

Many people have experienced misdiagnosis often with autism or ADHD overlooked and misunderstood by therapists.
My name is Sarah and I have over 20 years experience working as a Psychotherapist in the NHS and in private practice. I specialise in CBT, ACT, Compassion focused approaches and in EMDR. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), includes a range of talking therapies, all based on the idea that thoughts, feelings, what we do, and how our bodies feel, are all connected. If we change one of these we can alter all the others. When we’re low or upset, we often fall into patterns of thinking and responding which can worsen how we feel. CBT works to help us notice thinking styles or unhelpful things that we do so we can live better.

ADHD Counsellors

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?

You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.

How does treatment for ADHD work?

Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioural therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.

How long does treatment for ADHD take?

It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
