In life’s journey we experience many ups and downs with issues we find difficult to cope with. To have someone there who’s warm, supportive and non judgemental can help to make that journey a little easier. To be heard and understood can aid in the process of understanding our inner feelings and emotions and help us to find successful ways of managing the difficulties that life throws at us. I can offer a safe and confidential place for you to share, explore and work through those difficulties which may be causing you distress.

I am specialised in working with neurodiversity including ADHD, ADD and Autism.
Hi, It takes courage to take the first steps into therapy. My clients often come to me feeling anxious and overwhelmed, being unsure how to move forward. Only feeling that they need help and something needs to change. In these difficult moments, therapy can be immensely helpful. I am a qualified counsellor offering my sessions in English and German. My practice is holistic, trauma-informed and neuro-affirmative, because I believe in supporting the whole person.

Reaching out for therapy can feel difficult, especially when you have been carrying things quietly for a long time or are unsure where to begin. Many people come when they feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally stuck, affected by relationships, loss, low confidence or ongoing stress, and simply want a safe space to think clearly, feel understood and make sense of what they are experiencing

I work with autistic and AuDHD adults who have spent a lifetime masking.
I offer neuroaffirming therapy. I start from the premise that your brain processes the world in an autistic way. That is a difference, not a deficit. Therapy isn’t the task of making you fit into the world. It is to help you understand yourself more clearly, and shape your life in a way that works for you.

Whatever brings you here, it can be the start of meaningful change. Therapy isn't only for times of crisis. Our life experiences shape the way we feel, relate and move through the world; we don’t always realise the patterns of behaviour we have developed to survive. In therapy, you may wish to explore these long-held beliefs, understanding their origins and assessing their relevance today.

I can offer a safe, confidential space offering a warm, empathic, supportive and non-judgemental environment for us to explore what’s going on for you. The trust and relationship that you have with your therapist is so important and will be the centre of our work together.

Hello and welcome. I offer a safe and supportive space to explore whatever feels important to you, whether that is thoughts, feelings or difficult life experiences. Using compassionate and somatic inquiry, grounded in mindfulness practice, we work with whatever arises in an accepting and non-judgemental way. Through these explorations we can start to gain insights and clarity into stuck patterns and behaviours which may no longer serve us. In doing so, we give space for new possibilities to emerge in how we live, relate and move through the world, allowing for a greater sense of authenticity, ease and freedom.

Hi, I'm Chris, I'm a bit of a nerd who is into books, gaming, movies and TV shows. Being a therapist isn't just my job, it's something I genuinely love doing because I am hugely curious about people. I realised I had a true interest in people while I traveled and met people from different walks of life, cultures and spiritualities. I spend a lot of my time trying to learn and understand things, whether it's a new game, philosophical concept or how something works. In my role as a therapist I'm getting to know and understand you so that we can figure out how best to support you through what it is you are experiencing.

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.
