How I can help
Neuroaffirming practice is at the heart of how I work, but my counselling is for anyone who feels my approach might suit them. I support adults from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences, including neurodivergent people and parents, carers and family members of neurodivergent children and young people.
Being neuroaffirming means recognising that there isn’t one “right” way to think, communicate, process information or experience the world. I won’t assume there is a particular way you should be. Instead, we can explore your experiences, needs, strengths and challenges with curiosity, compassion and without judgement.
You might be experiencing anxiety, low mood, overwhelm, grief, relationship difficulties, stress or feeling stuck. You may be navigating masking, burnout or overwhelm, exploring your identity or neurodivergence, adjusting to a diagnosis, or supporting someone you care about.
I offer warm, neuroaffirming counselling to adults across the UK, online and by telephone.
-
A neuroaffirming approach is central to my practice
Simply put, it’s about adapting the counselling to the person, rather than expecting the person to adapt to the counselling.
-
Support for overthinking, emotional overwhelm, low mood, exhaustion or feeling unable to cope.
-
Space to explore what a diagnosis or growing awareness of neurodivergence means for you, including identity, masking and making sense of past experiences.
-
Support for exhaustion, reduced capacity, sensory overwhelm and the impact of masking or pushing through.
-
A space for you when so much of your energy goes into supporting someone else.
-
Support with bereavement and other forms of loss, including changes in relationships, identity, health, work or the life you expected to have.
What I can support you with
You don't need to fit into a category
You might also be struggling with relationships, family difficulties, self-esteem, shame, work, university, caring responsibilities or changes in your life. Or perhaps you simply feel stuck and aren't quite sure why.
You don't need to know exactly what you need from counselling before you begin.
