It's a lot, isn't it? Getting back into the swing of things in January, you've realised you need support, and now you face the next hurdle: searching for a counsellor who truly understands living with ADHD, AuDHD and the way your brain works. You want to work with someone who shares your values and understands what it means to be a late-diagnosed woman dealing with racing thoughts and the exhaustion of life... Right? 

I hear you. You've already done the brave part by recognising you need someone to chat to. If you need support in Manchester to finally work with your brain and build a sustainable life, let's connect.

Hello! I’m Amy, I’m a fully-qualified, online counsellor UK wide based in Salford. I work with late-diagnosed ADHD, AuDHD, and Autistic adults who want support with neurodivergence, navigate a new diagnosis or self diagnosis and learn how to meet yourself where you are now. My approach is rooted in understanding, empathy, and respect for your journey - you’re the expert in you. I am registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society which means I adhere to strict ethics and standards, you’re safe with me.

If you’re dealing with rejection sensitivity, overwhelmed by your schedule, feeling stuck, not being heard, or simply need someone to talk to, I am here to listen. You want someone who believes in empowering their clients to discover their true selves and unlock their full potential, instilling a sense of understanding, hope and motivation.

• Confidential, supportive environment: Your well-being is my top priority.

No pressure, I’m a non-biased champion by your side. We will take time to assess your needs during the consultation session, then you can decide if we are right for each other. There’s no expectation you will have ‘6 sessions’, some clients see me once, I have supported others for years.

If you’ve had therapy before and feel you need more time per week you can choose between 50-minute or 80-minute weekly sessions, to give you the space you deserve. My offer is open-ended counselling with regular reviews – you’re in control.
