Autism and Asperger's
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.

Autism and Asperger's
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.

Autism and Asperger's
Jason Fletcher Hypnotherapy and Coaching
Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
In work with Autism and Asperger’s, the focus is on supporting emotional regulation, anxiety, and overwhelm rather than trying to change who you are. I adapt sessions to your pace and communication style, respecting neurodiversity and individual needs. Therapy provides a structured and supportive space to build greater comfort, understanding, and emotional stability.

Autism and Asperger's
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!
