Neuroaffirmative and
trauma informed therapy
I offer a space that fits around you and not the other way around, somewhere you don’t need to perform, you are welcome to come as you are, however you are.
You might need to stim, move, speak fast or slow, stare out the window, or be silent. I have no expectations how you ’should’ do therapy. However you are, I will meet you with compassion and curiosity.
Working with a neurodivergent therapist
Being neurodivergent myself doesn’t mean I know how it is to be you. I hope to get to as close as I can to your unique experience through listening and inquiry held in empathy and curiosity. Working with another neurodivergent person does mean there is a backdrop to your life that is familiar to me - meaning you might find a sense of deeper understanding.
Perhaps you need things explained in a different way, explicit answers to things that are important to know, creative outlets, or repeating things until they feel complete. We will work together to find ways that work best for you to explore your thoughts and feelings - giving you a better understanding of yourself in the world, your needs are and meeting them, helping you to feel less alone or helpless.
