I specialise in ADHD, neurodiversity, stress, anxiety, trauma, emotion regulation problems and personality disorders, which often occur due to some level of trauma.
Trauma isn’t always just one big dramatic event, and can manifest from micro-traumas that occur in everyday life, particularly if you’re neurodivergent. It's often those subtle hurts, micro-aggressions and invalidation that erodes your self-worth leading to chronic stress, anxiety and burnout, without one single major traumatic event.
Over the last 20-or-so years, I’ve helped a wide variety of people improve both their mental and physical wellbeing, using a range of evidence-based therapies including: Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). I also weave in concepts from Schema Therapy, IFS and other therapies when suitable.
These approaches, combined with coaching techniques, are particularly effective. Together, we can work towards building a life that feels meaningful and manageable for you.
As someone with ADHD myself, I truly get what it’s like to have a brain that doesn’t always play by the rules. That’s one of the reasons I’m passionate about helping you navigate your unique challenges.
If you’re struggling with anything, I’d love to hear from you. We can talk about your unique needs and work together to create a personalised plan that’s just right for you.
