Welcome to CR Smith Virtual PA and Coaching

I provide specialist coaching, practical support and workplace guidance for autistic and neurodivergent adults, professionals, entrepreneurs and organisations throughout the UK.

As an ADHD & Autism Coach, ADHD & Autism Assessor, Neurodiversity & Disability Specialist and Executive Functioning Coach, I combine professional expertise with lived understanding to help individuals build confidence, reduce overwhelm and create sustainable strategies that genuinely work for them. My approach is compassionate, practical and tailored to each person's unique strengths, challenges and goals.

• Employers and managers seeking neuroinclusive support
• NHS, Police, Prison Service, Armed Forces and corporate organisations.

My Approach

Many autistic people have spent years feeling misunderstood or trying to fit into systems that were never designed with them in mind.

I believe support should work with your brain—not against it.

Rather than expecting people to change who they are, I help create practical systems, strategies and environments that reduce stress, improve confidence and enable sustainable success in everyday life, education and employment.

Every coaching session provides a safe, non-judgemental space where you can explore challenges, celebrate strengths and develop realistic strategies that are tailored to you.
