About me
Are you on a journey with being neurodivergent? Beginning to think it explains your life experiences and aligns with how you think, act and feel? (undiagnosed, exploring, self-diagnosed, diagnosed, all welcome!)
I work with autistic, ADHD and AuDHD clients, exploring what comes with that, and how this affects you living in a world not built to your neurotype. This may include: masking, ableism, managing capacity, sensory sensitivities, reasonable adjustments and accommodations to name a few.
I have a keen interest and specialism in working with OCD (diagnosed or undiagnosed). In particular, the overlap of OCD co-occurring with autism and distinguishing what is OCD, and what is autistic routine and stimming.
I’m an integrative therapist, which means I don’t think there is a one size fits all approach. Instead, imagine you are at the optician's trying on different lenses, figuring out which one helps you see clearer... that's how I approach therapy.
These lenses are;
Neuroaffirmative: this is as standard how I practice. I adapt therapy to work alongside your brain - and mine! (I'm AuDHD)
I offer psychoeducation, the science and brain bits behind what's happening, because sometimes we want to know why and that's okay and welcomed. I find this helps unlock growth understanding why we are doing something.
Solution-focused therapy: what are we going to do about it? Sometimes being practical can be helpful along side talking therapy.
CBT and ERP (for OCD) may help you to identify patterns and challenges in your life (adapted to be ND friendly, and at your pace).
I aim to hold your best interests and care at the core of my practice. I provide a calm, sensory-friendly space where I can hold your emotions and story competently and be that space for you.
