How I Work

Every person is unique.

 

There is no single approach that works for everyone, which is why I draw from a range of therapeutic, coaching and psychoeducational approaches depending on your needs.

 

My work is particularly informed by my experience supporting neurodivergent adults, including people with ADHD, Autism and AuDHD.

 

Together we explore not only what is happening in your life, but why it may be happening and what changes might help.

 

I believe that understanding creates relief. Relief creates hope. Hope creates change.

 

My approach combines emotional understanding, nervous system awareness, practical strategies and self-acceptance to help you better understand yourself and create a life that works for you.

 

Every person is unique.

 

There is no single approach that works for everyone, which is why I take an integrative and personalised approach to therapy and coaching.

 

I work particularly with neurodivergent adults, including people with ADHD, Autism and AuDHD, as well as those navigating burnout, emotional overwhelm, identity challenges, relationship difficulties and major life transitions.

 

My aim is not to “fix” you.

 

My aim is to help you understand yourself more deeply, develop practical ways to navigate life’s challenges and create a life that works for you.

 

I believe that:

 

Understanding creates relief.

 

Relief creates hope.

 

Hope creates change.

 

The HOME Framework

The HOME Framework underpins much of my work.

Hold Safety

Creating a space where your nervous system can begin to settle.

Observe the Body

Learning to recognise emotions, triggers, patterns and bodily signals before they take over.

Move & Regulate

Developing practical ways to work with overwhelm, stress, emotional dysregulation and life challenges.

Embody Identity

Building a life that reflects who you are rather than who you think you should be.

What Happens In Sessions?

No two sessions are exactly the same.

 

Some sessions focus on understanding ADHD, Autism or neurodivergence.

 

Some focus on emotional regulation, relationships or communication.

 

Others explore identity, self-worth, boundaries, burnout, grief or life transitions.

 

Together we explore what is happening in your life, why it may be happening and what changes might help.

 

The Approaches I Draw From

Rather than working from a single model, I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches depending on your needs.

 

These may include:

 

• Person-Centred Therapy

 

• CBT-informed approaches

 

• ACT-informed approaches

 

• DBT-informed skills

 

• Gestalt Therapy

 

• Psychoeducation

 

• Nervous system awareness

 

• Mindfulness and somatic approaches

 

• Coaching techniques

 

• ADHD and neurodivergent-informed practice

 

The approach is always tailored to you.

 

Areas We May Explore

  • ADHD
  • Autism
  • AuDHD

Because life is rarely just one thing.

People are complex.

My approach reflects that complexity while helping you make sense of it.

Is This Right For Me?

This approach may be a good fit if:

 

• You want to understand yourself on a deeper level.

 

• You are neurodivergent or exploring whether you may be.

 

• You feel overwhelmed, stuck or burnt out.

 

• You struggle with emotional regulation.

 

• You want practical support as well as emotional understanding.

 

• You are looking for an approach that considers mind, body, emotions and relationships.

 

I offer a free 30 minute consultation so we can explore whether working together feels like the right fit.
