QUALIFICATIONS
Grounded in Experience. Guided by Lived Reality.
You deserve to know that the person you’re trusting with your brain isn’t just a nice human with a Canva account.
I’m an accredited neurodiversity coach, lifelong learner, space-maker for messy minds, and a card-carrying member of the “been there, spiralled through that” club. My qualifications blend professional training, ongoing study, and decades of lived experience navigating a brain that works outside the so-called “norms.”
This mix of professional skill and personal experience means I can support you with strategies that actually work for neurodivergent humans, without the guilt trips, jargon, or “just try harder” advice.

LIVED EXPERTISE
(BECAUSE IT MATTERS)
Qualifications on paper are important, but lived experience is where the real connection happens.
Late ADHD diagnosis in adulthood with experience of all the spirals, self-discovery, and unmasking that came with it, so I know exactly how it feels to start piecing it all together later in life
Personal journey from “survival mode” to building a sustainable rhythm
Understanding the reality of executive dysfunction, sensory needs, and burnout from the inside
Deep empathy for those navigating diagnosis, self-acceptance, and a world that often misunderstands them
Fluent in neurodivergent conversation patterns, brain tangents, and the unspoken “I’m not fine”
If you want someone who’s qualified on paper, battle-tested in life, and allergic to BS, you’re in the right place.
Note: ADHD coaching works best as a collaborative approach to well-being.
It complements other treatments like therapy or medication by providing practical skills and support for navigating the challenges of ADHD & AuDHD.
