Support for Therapists and other Professionals
Therapist Support
Whether you’re a therapist stepping into private practice, an established counsellor seeking to specialise in working with neurodivergent clients, or simply looking for guidance on optimising your approach with neurodivergent individuals, my therapist coaching sessions might be just what you need!
My tailored support sessions cater to various needs and we can look at a combination of things that might support you, such as:
- Launching into Private Practice
As an Autistic/ADHD therapist myself, I know first hand the challenges of setting up a private practice when you’re neurodivergent. From executive functioning issues to questions about disclosure, my therapist coaching sessions can offer you a space to explore barriers and set a solid foundation for your practice.
- Personalised 1-1 Training
I sometimes find that I struggle to learn in big group settings, and when I book onto online CPD workshops I quite often forget, procrastinate or don’t have the headspace to do them. I find the energy of working with someone 1/1 helps me learn in a way no course or workshop quite can. For this reason I offer my trainings as 1/1 options and tailor them to you and your specific needs.
Experienced counsellors or trainees looking to refine their practice and learn more about neurodivergence can benefit from these personalised sessions. I can help you explore new insights, strategies, and support to help you elevate your practice and better serve neurodivergent clients.
- Support & Supervision
Whether you’re facing challenges with specific neurodivergent clients or seeking to improve your effectiveness in therapy sessions, my support sessions offer targeted assistance and practical solutions tailored to your unique needs. I currently have some capacity for ad hoc specialist supervision sessions. For more on how I work you might be interested in my book Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy: Rethinking Approaches for Autistic and ADHD Clients.

Therapist feedback
“It was so great to finally meet you. I found our time together incredibly helpful and restorative.
It felt like such a breath of fresh air to be able to have supervision with you and I am continuing to be very reflective about both myself and my practice and the path forward. I will carry my new learning into my client work, with enthusiasm.
I also wanted to say that I felt very accepted and that I could be completely and unapologetically myself, so thank you for this. It was exactly what I wanted and what I needed.“
Supervisee
“The most important thing for me was the feeling of being understood and having a common language with Amy. As a neurodivergent counselling student the training process has been challenging for me in specific ways and I experienced validation from talking about this with Amy – it helps to know I am not alone in my experience. I feel my confidence was boosted after speaking with Amy as I was able to focus on the assets I have and what I can bring to my counselling practice.”
Final Year Counselling Student
“It was an absolute pleasure meeting with you yesterday. I really enjoyed your style and your kind feedback felt so affirming, thank you. Also, realising again how much it means to be fully seen in supervision, in this case as someone who is also neurodivergent. I don’t feel I’ve been validated like that before. I’m feeling excited to work with you again soon!”

Lived Experience Consultation
Are you designing or creating a product, policy or system for your organisation?
Approximately 1 in 5 people are neurodivergent in the UK and we think and engage with the world in a different way to others. So it makes sense to include neurodivergence at the heart of the planning stages. For a lived experience consultation, from a neurodivergent therapist, please contact me for more details on how I can help.
Supervision
Alongside her counselling, Amy is a clinical supervisor. Using creative methods to provide a supportive safe space for counsellors and other professionals, supervision can be a powerful tool for exploration, reflection and growth.
Ideal for counsellors, coaches, school staff, SLT, SEN staff, support workers or any professional working with a complex caseload.
Supervision can be provided as ‘ad hoc’ sessions with a focus on neurodivergence, or a more long term regular supervisory relationship. See the fees page for costs. Contact Amy for more details.
