Tayler Remi | Neurodivergent-Affirming Psychotherapy | Autism, ADHD & Trauma

Being neurodivergent can be a gift — but it doesn’t always feel like one.

The real strain often comes from stigma, ableism, and the pressure to act “normal,” not from your neurotype itself. That pressure can leave you living in constant burnout, stuck in executive dysfunction, or weighed down by masking. You might find yourself cycling between hyperfocus and collapse, or battling time blindness, overwhelm, and shutdowns. Perhaps you carry shame from rejection sensitive dysphoria, or wonder where your neurodivergence ends and your trauma begins.
This is exactly the territory I work in.

Hi, I’m Tayler.

I’m an integrative, relational psychotherapist specialising in neurodivergent-affirming therapy for autistic adults, ADHD adults, and AuDHD adults across the UK and Europe. I have lived experience of neurodivergence, which means you won’t need to translate the basics, but I’ll always stay curious about what’s yours alone.

I work especially well with people navigating:

– Autistic burnout, ADHD burnout, and AuDHD burnout — including the shutdown, skill regression, and collapse that nobody warned you about
Masking, unmasking, and the identity crisis that can follow
– Late diagnosis and self-identification — the grief, the relief, and the complicated feelings in between
– Rejection sensitive dysphoria, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chronic self-criticism
– Complex trauma and CPTSD through a neurodivergent lens — particularly where trauma and neurodivergence are deeply intertwined
– Nervous system dysregulation, sensory overwhelm, emotional flashbacks, and shutdown
– Neurodivergent identity, self-acceptance, and figuring out who you actually are underneath the masking
– Relationships, attachment patterns, communication differences, and boundaries
– LGBTQ+ identity, gender, sexuality, and the particular complexity of navigating all of this as a neurodivergent person
– Internalised ableism, shame, and the exhaustion of performing neurotypicality for years

How I work

My approach is relational, integrative, and trauma-informed. I draw on IFS-informed parts work, somatic approaches, and person-centred therapy — adapting how I work to suit your communication style, sensory needs, and the way you actually process things, not the way therapy typically expects you to.

There’s no fixed formula. We’ll begin where you are and shape the work around what feels safe, meaningful, and genuinely useful — not what looks good on a treatment plan.

I work online with adults across the UK and Europe. No formal diagnosis is required — I work with self-identified and undiagnosed neurodivergent adults, and I’m familiar with the Right to Choose pathway for those exploring formal assessment.

A little more about me

I founded Common Ground — a specialist neurodivergent-affirming psychotherapy practice — because good therapy for neurodivergent people is still too hard to find. The practice brings together carefully chosen therapists who understand this work from the inside, not just from training.

I’m a Registered Member of the BACP (No. 414145) and hold a BSc, PgDip, GMBPsS, and MNPC (Acc.). Sessions are £85 for 60 minutes, and I offer a free 20-minute consultation call for new clients.
