Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I define myself as a “neurodiversity affirming therapist” and feel absolutely honoured to work with neurodiverse individuals and couples. This means I understand and work with autism, ADHD and other neurodiverse groups through the lens of neuroscience. Autism is associated with differences in the brain which result in a divergence from neurotypical standards, in terms of how brains filter and make sense of information. I endeavour to help clients shed misplaced humiliation and a sense of failure by becoming conscious of and removing the notion that ‘typical’ traits are superior. It is the neurodiverse individuals in our society that move humanity along.

I work with ( parents of children with special needs, ) providing emotional support and practical coping skills that they can share with their family and loved ones.

My approach focuses on understanding each person’s unique strengths, challenges, and communication style. Sessions may include strategies to reduce stress, enhance social connections, and support daily life skills—all within a respectful, strengths-based framework that celebrates neurodiversity.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a warm, respectful, and neurodiversity-affirming space for clients on the autism spectrum, including those who identify with Asperger’s. I understand that each individual experiences the world differently and believe that therapy should celebrate those differences rather than try to change them.
Using an integrative approach I support clients in developing practical coping strategies, improving emotional regulation, and enhancing communication and social skills in ways that feel authentic and empowering. My approach focuses on identifying personal strengths, building confidence, and supporting self-advocacy.
I strive to offer a compassionate and accepting environment where neurodivergent clients can explore challenges, nurture self-understanding, and build meaningful, fulfilling lives—on their own terms.
