Anxiety:

If you suffer with anxiety, we can work together to help you gain insight into this condition. We can also explore practical tools to help calm your nervous system and help you better manage your anxiety.

 

Burnout:

Burnout is a chronic stress condition that severely impedes an autistic/AuDHD person’s ability to function in everyday life. Together, we will navigate the deep exhaustion of autistic burnout, focusing on nervous system regulation and self-compassion.

​​

Bereavement/Loss/Separation/Divorce:

I will guide you through the painful process of grief and loss, help you to honour this loss and find a path forward.

​

Bullying/ stigma/discrimination

We can work together to rebuild your confidence and resilience after experiencing bullying, stigma, discrimination.

​

Camouflaging/Masking:

Many neurodiverse clients camouflage/mask aspects of their autistic identity. During Therapy we can explore masking, we can celebrate your neurodivergent traits and honour your true needs.

 

Depression:

If you are suffering with symptoms of depression, we can work collaboratively, to help you understand what you are going through, develop coping strategies, and get you back to feeling more like yourself again.

 

Double empathy problem:

Neurodivergent and neurotypical people frequently misunderstand and misinterpret each other’s communication styles. If you are neurodivergent, we can explore the impact of this on your sense of self.

​​

Low self-confidence/self-esteem:

In therapy, we can work together to help you build self-compassion/self-acceptance. Through therapy you can begin to build a gentler relationship with yourself, learning to meet your struggles with warmth and curiosity, rather than with self-criticism.

​

Menopause:

We can explore the additional challenges that can occur during perimenopause and menopause. I can offer you support in navigating the stress, anxiety, and identity changes that often accompany this midlife transition.

​​

Relaxation Techniques:

I will work with you to help identify/navigate/accept difficult emotional states/body sensations, and I can provide you with psychoeducation and relaxation techniques in relation to this.

​

Special Interests:

If you are neurodivergent, we can work together to explore your special interests (SPINS), passions, skills, values, strengths, challenges, and goals, to help you foster a positive neurodivergent identity.

​

Support to autistic individuals:

I offer support to autistic/AuDHD individuals who are currently going through (or have gone through) the diagnostic process. It is important to note, that I am a psychotherapist and do not diagnose clients, but I do offer exploration of neurodivergent identity through talking therapy. When supporting autistic/AuDHD clients I use a neuro-affirming approach, that respects the clients communication style, sensory needs and fosters a positive identity.

​

Support to family members:

I offer support to adults/parents/guardians of autistic children using a neuro-affirming approach. An approach that respects autistic communication styles, sensory needs and fosters a positive autistic identity.
