Neurodivergent Therapist

Like many, I was late diagnosed AuDHD (Autism and Combined ADHD). I also have experience as a parent with a neurodivergent child and everything that comes with trying to advocate for their best interests, whilst battling my own overwhelm.

With extensive training also comes real life experience and understanding of neurodivergence.

Did you know in the UK, the titles "counsellor" and "psychotherapist" are not legally protected? This means anyone can practice as a counsellor or psychotherapist without the necessity of formal qualifications.

When selecting a therapist, it's essential to verify their credentials. Always ensure they are qualified (minimum level 4), carry professional insurance, and are registered with a reputable ethical body, such as the NCPS or BACP.
