ADHD and Autism
If you have an ADHD or autism diagnosis or feel you are struggling with traits associated with these, then I can help.
Being neurodiverse, in a neurotypical world can be hugely challenging for a person’s mental health. I feel very passionate about breaking down the shame & ignorance that surrounds the myths, that often hold people back from seeking the support they need.
Living with ADHD/autism as a child, is often a very difficult, turbulent time, which impacts on family life, attachments & friendships, learning & schooling, on top of the crippling negative beliefs, isolation & lack of self-worth that become part of how you think & feel.
All these factors take their toll on the individual & as an adult it can feel overwhelming, leaving the person feeling lost, anxious & low.
In working with me, the counselling process will help you to feel connected, with someone that understands the challenging nature of ADHD and autism.
Developing an awareness & understanding of your unique brain wiring is incredibly valuable & forms the basis for self-acceptance, in being able to let go of the self-blame & negative beliefs, that have often formed.
As I work alongside you, we can navigate together, your best path through the confusion & overwhelming feelings, experienced in day to day life, which can often leave the individual feeling stuck & helpless.
I believe that through building a safe, non-judgemental, therapeutic relationship, a more resilient, positive way of looking at daily struggles can be adopted, where you can feel more in control of your life.
Do you, or someone you know;
∙ struggle to manage emotions, get angry easily, feel overwhelmed or unable to feel anything at all
∙ feel an inner restlessness or inability to focus on either starting tasks, maintaining interest or failing to finish things
∙ get easily distracted or lose interest
∙ have low mood
∙ have low self-worth & negative beliefs
∙ have difficulty processing information
∙ struggle with organization & prioritizing
My humanistic, integrative approach begins with understanding how your brain really works, together we can explore who you ‘really’ are, what your strengths are & within the process of discovery, feelings of hope & empowerment will develop.
We can begin turning problems into opportunities.
I am experienced in working with a broad range of associated issues, such as; stress, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviours, low self-esteem, isolation & trauma.
