Haimove Amir
Registered Psychotherapist, psychotherapist
I provide individualized, neurodiversity-informed support for autistic children, teens, and adults, including individuals who identify with or have previously been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. My approach focuses on understanding the person rather than defining them by a diagnosis. Therapy may address communication, emotional regulation, anxiety, social relationships, self-confidence, sensory experiences, daily challenges, and family relationships. With children, I may use play-based and creative approaches to support communication and emotional expression. I also work with parents and families to better understand their child's strengths and needs and develop practical strategies that support connection, confidence, and meaningful participation in everyday life.

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.
