About me
As an accredited neurodiversity coach, I work holistically with individuals aged 18 and above who self-identify as neurodivergent or have been diagnosed. I hold space for you to reflect on and process your personal experiences, respecting your expertise on neurodiversity.
Being neurodivergent myself, I am dedicated to supporting and empowering you to become more self-aware and accepting of your true self. Life can be complex, compounded by navigating through a neurodivergent lens; I apply my experience and expertise with a professional and personable approach to meet your individual needs.
I have worked in the field of psychology, diverse mental health provisions and occupational health with adults, young people and children. I have worked as an Assistant Psychologist and a Primary Mental Health Practitioner within the NHS, the police and also probation services with adult offenders. I have specialised in working with victims of specific trauma, including abuse, rape & child sexual exploitation. Noticing the experiences of neurodivergent individuals and my neurodivergence, I gained additional qualifications in neurodiversity to focus my expertise.
The Types of Issues I Support Neurodivergent Clients With
- overwhelm and burnout
- executive function and transitions
- anxiousness and low mood
- self-criticism and negative self-narratives
- managing energy levels
- communication
- self-regulation
Ways of Working
I provide a confidential, safe and non-judgmental space for reflection, understanding and acceptance that empowers you to meet your personal goals and needs.
I utilise a strengths-based intuitive approach for you to actualise your unique potential when working towards your goals. My practice is embedded in my experience of working with children and adults in diverse settings as well as psychological theory and training. I specialise in ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia.
I work flexibly with you to schedule your sessions; each session is 1 hour, and I offer an initial free 30-minute consultation to meet each other.
