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.

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.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Autism is experienced differently by everyone, and finding support that genuinely understands your individual needs can make a meaningful difference. Whether you or your child are navigating sensory sensitivities, communication differences, emotional regulation challenges, social relationships, or difficulty adjusting to change, you deserve a supportive environment where your experiences are understood and respected.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I bring extensive experience supporting autistic children and individuals with diverse developmental and behavioural needs. My background includes working as a Behaviour Interventionist, providing individualized support in educational settings, and collaborating with families, teachers, and multidisciplinary teams. These experiences have strengthened my understanding of the importance of recognizing individual strengths, adapting support strategies, and respecting different ways of experiencing the world.
My counselling approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. Rather than viewing autism as something that needs to be corrected, I focus on understanding each person's unique experiences, challenges, and goals. Together, we can explore emotional regulation, anxiety, self-esteem, communication, self-advocacy, and strategies for navigating everyday situations with greater confidence.
I also recognize the important role that family relationships, cultural expectations, and support systems can play in an autistic person's well-being. Whether you're seeking counselling for yourself or support for your child, my goal is to create a collaborative space where individual differences are respected and meaningful growth can occur.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to help you or your loved one build confidence, strengthen connections, and feel supported in navigating life's challenges.
