I have experience with ADHD, Autism, and addictions. I am also ADHD myself, so have lived experience as well as training.
I also work with anxiety.

Have you ever felt misunderstood, not listened to or simply feel that people do not get you - well I am here for you. I am not here to judge you or make assumptions or think I know best, I am here to help you feel safe so that you have the space to talk.

I currently work as a counselling Coordinator for one day a week at Change Grow Live Reading, who help people with drug and alcohol addictions. I am DBS checked.

Please note that I am relocating around the end of April, beginning of May to West Sussex, near Worthing.
