I am Neurodivergent
I bring to the therapeutic relationship my own neurodivergent experiences as someone with a diagnosis of Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia. In more recent years, I have been exploring a (self) diagnosis of ADHD. I struggled at school and only started thriving at University, an environment where I was understood. It took years of perseverance and setbacks to get to the point I am in my career now.
Through my journey in counselling and therapy, I learned how to value myself and my unique ways. I truly believe that my Neurodivergent thinking skills are what help make me the compassionate and empathetic therapist that I am. I also value the importance of self-disclosure about my neurodivergent struggles. Like many, I do face daily barriers. It took me (for example) many hours to create this website 🙂
