 What our clients say about us 

" Sara is incredibly easy to talk to. I reached a point where I knew I needed to find better coping strategies. I'm from a family that's really against labels, so I thought I'd struggle to discuss, but it was actually easy to open up. 
I'd highly recommend. I feel already I'm making positive changes and understanding myself better and where my challenges come from."

Experts in 'high-functioning' and subtle presentations of adult ADHD.

 5 SIGNS OF 'HIGH-FUNCTIONING' ADHD: 

Outwardly Successful, Privately Struggling​​​​​​

  • You excel in many areas of life, yet find yourself overwhelmed by tasks or struggling in your private life

Always Adapting

  • You've created endless systems and strategies to keep up or cope, but they somehow always fall apart

Feeling Different

  • Deep down, you sense your brain works differently from others, but can't quite put your finger on why

The Perfect Mask

  • You've become so good at hiding your challenges that no one would guess how hard you're working behind the scenes

Constantly Exhausted

  • You're drained from working twice as hard as others, just to keep up with the expectations or demands of daily life

 Tired of masking who

you really are? 

 

Constant striving to meet neurotypical expectations often pushes neurodivergent adults to cycles of burnout, increases levels of stress, anxiety and depression.

 

Our team of expert psychologists help you to connect with and understand the person behind the mask so that you can drop the self-criticism and thrive as your authentic self.

As psychologists with lived experience of ADHD, Autism and AuDHD,

We don't just understand neurodivergence -

We understand the reality of living with and experiencing the world, ourselves and others through our neurodivergent minds

" I know all about the frustration
of long waiting lists and the limitations of quick, impersonal private assessments and support.

I know we deserve better.

What is AuDHD?

What You Need to Know:   Intersection of Autism and ADHD 

​40-70% of autistic individuals also meet criteria for ADHD, with up to half of those with ADHD show autistic traits

"Living Contradiction": AuDHD individuals experience internal conflicts between competing needs

Masking Effect: ADHD and autism traits can hide each other, making diagnosis challenging and often leading to misidentification

Unique Strengths: AuDHD brains offer exceptional pattern recognition, creative problem-solving, and innovative thinking that combines structure with flexibility

Cyclical Patterns: Unlike either condition alone, AuDHD follows distinctive cycles of high energy followed by crashes​
