Clinical psychologist and coach specialising in ADHD, autism, AuDHD, trauma, CPTSD, and eating disorders — online education and coaching worldwide.

Free 60-minute Clarity Session available.
Online education and coaching for late-diagnosed neurodivergent adults — ADHD, autism, AuDHD, CPTSD, trauma, and eating disorders. Maudsley/FBT-certified. DBT and ACT-based skills programmes. LGBTQ+-affirming. I work as an educator and coach, not a therapist. Available to clients in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
If you have spent years being misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or told to try harder, you are not broken — you are likely working with a brain that no one properly explained to you. I offer rigour, lived experience, and zero toxic positivity. A free 60-minute Clarity Session is a good place to start.
