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. Drawing from both my professional training and my personal experience as a parent of an autistic son, I offer guidance and compassionate support for adults and families navigating Autism and Asperger’s. 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.
