Feeling Misunderstood or Overwhelmed in a World
That Moves Too Fast?
We help you create a way of living that works with you—not against you.
When Everyday Life Feels More Challenging Than It Should
Autism can shape how you experience the world—how you process information, interact with others, and respond to your environment. At times, this can feel overwhelming, especially in situations that others seem to handle with ease.
You might find social interactions draining or confusing, struggle with unexpected changes, or feel overloaded by noise, pressure, or expectations. Over time, this can lead to stress, anxiety, or feeling like you have to mask who you really are just to fit in.
But there’s nothing “wrong” with you—your brain simply works in a different way. And with the right understanding and support, life can feel far more manageable and aligned.
What Becomes Easier With The Right Support?
Support isn’t about changing who you are—it’s about helping you navigate life in a way that feels more comfortable, clear, and in your control.
Through our work together, you’ll begin to:
- Stay focused for longer without feeling overwhelmed
- Manage distractions and improve concentration
- Build simple systems that keep you organised and on track
- Follow through on tasks with more consistency
- Reduce stress, frustration, and mental overload
- Feel more confident in your abilities and decisions
Building a Life That Fits You
There is no “one way” to experience autism—which is why support should never be one-size-fits-all.

Frequent Asked Questions
Personalised one-on-one virtual sessions to help you manage anxiety, depression, stress, or life transitions in a safe, judgment-free space.
What types of therapy do you offer?
At the core of our practice is the fact that we provide a bespoke custom-built solution to whatever challenges you are facing. The type of problem, how long you've been affected and your personality profile will all be considered when building your action plan. No two people are alike, so no two people can be helped with one ‘ solution to solve all problems’ approach. I conduct a one-to-one initial discussion with you to make sure we address the cause of your challenged not just put a sticking plaster over the obvious visible or not so visible problem.
Are sessions confidential?
Yes, absolutely. All therapy sessions are 100% confidential. Your privacy is a top priority, and nothing discussed in your session will be shared without your written consent, except in rare cases where there is a legal obligation to ensure your safety or the safety of others.
Do I need a referral to book a session?
No referral is needed. Getting a referral can take months and sometimes years before getting the help you need. It's hard enough for you to reach out. You can book a session directly without going through a doctor or any other professional. Just choose a time that works for you and get started, it's that simple.
What if I’m not sure I need therapy?
That’s completely okay. Many people feel uncertain at first. If you're experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood, or just feel stuck, talking to a therapist can help you gain clarity. Even one session can provide valuable insight and support, you don’t need to have everything figured out before starting.
Do you work Online?
Yes. Secure video and in‑person in the Greater Manchester Area.
Are you strictly 12‑Step for addiction?
the 12 steps to addiction recovery are a well trodden path used by Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous and more recently CODA the co-dependants anonymous organisation. It's effective in certain situations but sometimes we use other methods to achieve the progress more quickly or more effectively
How many sessions will I need?
Short‑term (6–12) for focused goals; longer‑term available for deeper work. We’ll review progress regularly.
Do you diagnose ADHD or Autism?
In many cases, you may already have been given a clinical analysis of your condition. If that's not the case and you just know “ something isn't right?” we can do a spectrum analysis and whist not a clinical analysis the psychological assessment often throws up a mixture of conditions which co-exist and I do find ‘labelling’ someone with a condition blinkers the less experienced therapist from looking at the bigger picture and addressing all the things that are contributing to your unhappiness.
