I have worked with clients who are autistic and/or have ADHD, both diagnosed and undiagnosed, and where PDA and learning difficulties may also be factors. There are many conditions that come under the neurodivergent umbrella, and I am always open to learning more about these and about people’s individual experience of their own neurodivergence.

Neurodiversity

simply means differences and variations in the human brain, in cognition and in behavioural traits within the general population. All people are neurodiverse as everyone is different.

Neurodivergent

Is used to describe a person whose neurological functioning differs from what is considered ‘typical’.
