I am Neurodiverse-affirming, I work with ASD and ADHD, whether diagnosed, self-diagnosed or suspected.
About me and my practice
I work with individual adults - men, women and identifications in between. No matter your background, our similarities and differences, I will listen and create the conditions for you to move toward a more fuller-functioning you.
My job is to help you talk about what troubles you, to shine a light on what you might not understand and to work at your pace. Ill maintain the professional boundaries, allowing you to feel safe.
Our work together might help you make decisions but I wont impose my opinions onto you. I will always ask how things are for you and well uncover your complexities together. We create a working relationship built on trust and respect.
Counselling can lead to feelings of increased freedom and choice with insights on how to change or develop, if that is what you need. There may be tears but with them laughter.
