I am proudly AuDHD and draw on 16 years of experience in private practice as well as lived experience of being neurodivergent. I work exclusively with Autistic and ADHD adults. My solution focused approach is to help you thrive as an Autistic / ADHD person rather than cope with symptoms by carrying on living a neurotypical life. I work relationally and do more than just validate your experience. I am very much involved and provide input, challenge and guidance. I help clients to recognise the systemic injustice that they might not notice, reclaim their power and move from awareness to action.
As a trauma informed therapist, I acknowledge that the deficit/disorder narrative and the medicalised model of Autism and ADHD can be traumatising. The treatment of Autistic and ADHD people to appear more neuro-normative, to fit «a square peg in a round hole» is very damaging. It is not your job to educate professionals on how you need to be helped.
My lived experience of being Autistic, helps with understanding and appreciating what the world looks like when the brain is wired in an A-typical way. Accepting and owning my identity with confidence means that I can support my clients in embracing being neurodivergent.

I often use Creative Psychotherapy. This is a form of talking therapy that allows you to express yourself creatively. Some people see it as a language to communicate with. You can use drawing, movement, sound, clay, creative writing, poetry, musical instruments, miniatures, drama, or whatever you are drawn to. Creativity goes beyond words, taking us deeper into the emotional experience.
