Hi I’m Tom. I am a therapist living with a diagnosed neurodiversity, and I’ve dedicated my practice to supporting other people in the neurodiverse (Autistic/ADHD) community. I know how important it is to feel understood and what it feels like to be misunderstood in a world built for neurotypicals. Because I’ve walked this path myself my lived experience helps me connect with clients in a way that feels genuine, compassionate, and relatable.

Neurodiversity brings unique strengths, but it also difficulties. Are you experiencing a heightened sensory experience, struggles with change, and the pressure of external expectations making life exhausting. As someone who shares many of the same experiences, I bring empathy into every session. My goal is to help you feel supported, valued, and empowered.

I support individual’s on the autistic and ADHD spectrum manage the stress associated with everyday life through a genuine understanding of the condition. I also do this by building a structure through the process of identifying struggles and systematically working through these issues either one by one or collectively allowing the individual feel that there is a sense of structure.

My approach to therapy is a person centred approach that is a adapted to suit individuals on the autistic / ADHD spectrum. This is done by using the positive openness of a person centred approach that allows the freedom of all feelings to be explored and heard while providing a structure that allows the individual to feel secure and where they can work towards positive change.

I offer sessions in person from the locations I have mentioned on my profile. Feel free to email me or call to book an initial consultation.
