ADHD and Neurodiversity Support

I work with adults who feel their mind doesn’t quite fit how the world expects them to be. Some have had an Adhd diagnosis some in the process of doing so. (I don't provide diagnosis )

This might look like:

Struggling with focus, organisation, or follow-through

Feeling emotional overwhelmed and find it hard to slow down and regulate , feeling burnt out.

Living with cycles of motivation and shutdown

Carrying a sense of underachievement and self-doubt

About Me
I grew up in Catholic Ireland at a time when the rules about who you were supposed to be were very clear. I wasn't particularly good at following them.
That's not something I say with bitterness — if anything, it gave me an early education in the gap between the life you're handed and the life that actually fits you. Growing up gay in that environment meant learning, quite young, what it costs to live inauthentically, and what it takes to find your own way toward something more honest.
That curiosity about people — why we are the way we are, what shapes us, what keeps us stuck — is what eventually pulled me away from a career in finance and into training as a therapist in my late twenties. Seeking to understand myself and others better.
