Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
I have ADHD and struggled with it undiagnosed my whole life - until recently. Since being diagnosed, I've undergone much research and training into specialising in this area and learned some life-changing skills along the way! Having a therapist with first-hand knowledge of any particular struggle is invaluable... and I enjoy being able to relate to my clients and bring my personal and professional experience together in helping you to overcome the worst things about living with ADHD. I now love not being neurotypical and fully embracing my differences; I think the diversity and extra things an ADHD brain is capable of can be a wonderful gift! However, the quality of my life until my diagnosis wasn't great - and having undiagnosed ADHD cost me a great deal.

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 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!

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
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.

Beth Jackson Counselling and Coaching
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (hons), Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Having worked in education and with a child of my own with ADHD I have a good understanding as well as appreciating that your story and journey so far are unique. Having a safe space where you can talk and work in your way and at your speed can often help everything make more sense quickly.
