I'm an AuDHD counsellor specialising in neurodivergence and trauma. I understand how being ND can present challenges that are often unseen, stigmatised, or internalised, causing emotional harm. I see you. I can help you with self-exploration and processing the painful experiences you no doubt have had - especially for those who are identified/diagnosed later in life. I also specialise in trauma, in particular, sexual abuse, physical abuse, and neglect in childhood. I recognise the complex deep-rooted trauma this causes. Together, we can gently explore & process the impact of abuse across the lifespan.
If you've been suffering in silence for years or have tried to numb your pain in ways that have harmed you and those you care about, then maybe now is the right time to reach out for the support you deserve. I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate, safe space for you to begin your healing journey.
I can help you deeply explore yourself to identify life, work, & relationship patterns, coping mechanisms, desires & goals, and to be finally seen and heard We will work together in the ways that suit you, I am merely a guide - someone who knows the terrain. This can include an initial stabilisation & safety focus. You are not the problem, or too much!
