Hi, I’m Sara—Counsellor, Coach & Neurodivergent
I don’t diagnose, but if you want an assessment, I’ll support you through the process.
I was diagnosed with Combined ADHD and dyscalculia later in life. I also have many dyslexia, and dyspraxia traits—so I really get it!
Labels? Or Just Misunderstanding?
People have called me:
🚫 Lazy
🚫 Self-absorbed
🚫 Thoughtless
🚫 Dippy
🚫 Selfish
🚫 Unreliable
🚫 Over-sensitive
🚫 Erratic
🚫 Irresponsible
Sound familiar? You’re not alone.

These words aren’t personality flaws—they’re symptoms of neurodivergence. Getting a diagnosis isn’t seeking attention. It’s the first step in understanding yourself and making life easier.
Why Traditional Counselling & Coaching Often Fails Us
For neurodivergent people, therapy doesn’t always work because:
✔️ Our conditions aren’t considered relevant
✔️ Many professionals don’t understand our struggles
✔️ Daily difficulties are often ignored
I believe therapy should start with YOU—your neurodivergence included. Ignoring it doesn’t make sense!
How I Can Help
I’ll help you understand your neurodivergence and find practical ways to make life easier.
Some challenges we can explore:
🔹 Oversensitivity & strong emotional reactions
🔹 Overwhelm, shutdown & burnout
🔹 The pain of rejection
🔹 Trouble starting or finishing tasks
🔹 Anxiety & depression
🔹 Mood changes
Neurodivergence: The First Step to Understanding Yourself
Your brain works differently, and that’s okay.
Neurodivergence explains why life feels tough, but it’s not an excuse to stay stuck. There are ways to make things better—and we’ll find them together.
Workshops to Help You Understand Yourself
I run two workshops to help people:
✔️ Explore the different conditions and the multiple elements to each person's Neurodivergence.
✔️ Explore the common symptoms and their similarities.
✔️ Explore different strategies to counteract their impact on life.
How I Work With You
Everyone is different. That’s why I offer a flexible and blended approach.
I’m trained as both a counsellor and a coach. This means I can support you in a way that fits your needs—whether you want to talk things through, take action, or a bit of both.
Your Journey, Your Control
✔️ You are always in charge of the process.
✔️ I will never push you into anything that doesn’t feel right.
✔️ If I believe another therapy or specialist might help, I’ll share my thoughts.
Ultimately, every decision is yours—I’ll support you in finding the right path forward.
