Autism
Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Autism can shape how you experience emotions, relationships, communication, sensory overwhelm, routine, change, and the world around you. Many autistic people spend years feeling misunderstood, masking, pushing themselves too hard, or wondering why life seems more difficult for them than it does for other people. I also have personal experience of autism and PDA traits, so I understand how difficult it can be to live with chronic overwhelm, burnout, sensitivity, shame, or feeling constantly misunderstood. My approach is affirming, thoughtful, and tailored to the individual. I work with you to understand yourself more deeply, embrace your differences rather than fight them, and build a life that feels more manageable, authentic, and sustainable. A diagnosis can sometimes bring enormous relief and help things finally make sense. At the same time, I do not believe people should feel boxed in by labels or start to see themselves only through the lens of a diagnosis. What matters most is helping you feel understood, validated, empowered, and more able to work with who you are rather than against yourself.

Autism
Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Being late diagnosed Autistic meant I had a lifetime of feeling I was different, but not understanding how and why. It has been a real rollercoaster of a ride discovering so many ways that I had adapted myself to suit others, and to start finally dropping the masks. This helps me to be open about what might be difficult for you, and to support you on your journey of discovery and acceptance. Together we will look at your difficulties, issues with relationships, areas where you struggle and the areas where you flourish. Any kind of otherness often come with low self-worth or beliefs, and I will support and encourage you to turn these around.

Alison Edwards FMBPsS Psychologist, Supervisor & ADHD Specialist
Psychologist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc, CBT/ ACT/ CFT/ SFBT Therapist
I’m experienced in working with autistic clients and clients who have been given a diagnosis of Asperger’s syndrome or ASD. I can tailor therapy sessions for all mental health problems according to the individual client’s needs. I have also provided counselling and CBT for clients whose children or wider family members have autism, and supported them with the challenges that have arisen in their family. I'm experienced in working with autistic clients who struggle with addictions and problematic use of video games and Chat GPT. I also specialise in CBT for ADHD/ ADD. I've been invited to speak on an expert panel on Neurodivergence in the workplace, at a large regional business show.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
I am a late diagnosed therapist who has an ADHD diagnosis so I know first hand the challenges that self-diagnosed and medically diagnosed neurodivergent people face. I have found that neurodivergent clients naturally gravitate towards me, and now I have my diagnosis it all makes sense! It’s so lovely being able to have that immediate understanding of things that neurotypical people just don’t experience, saving the need to over explain and welcoming in supposed “weirdness”. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!
