Autism
Yuka Oshimi
Counsellor/Therapist, MC, RCC, RCC-ACS (c), DCP(c), ADHD-CCSP
As an autistic therapist, I offer neurodivergent-affirming counselling for autistic adults, including late-diagnosed and self-identified autistic clients. Together, we can explore masking, autistic burnout, sensory overwhelm, identity, relationships, and self-advocacy in a space where your communication style, needs, and lived experience are respected.

Renee Chu
Registered Psychotherapist, Hon. BA., RP
Do you struggle with reading social, emotional cues and communication, making it hard to form meaningful relationships? Do you often feel isolated, watching others navigate interactions and decisions that feel second nature to them but challenging to you? These experiences can undermine your confidence and self-worth. I work with autistic clients to build mental agility, self-compassion, and practical coping skills, helping you navigate a neurotypical world with greater ease and a deeper sense of belonging.

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.
