Neurodiversity-Informed Therapy in Geelong & Online

Understanding yourself and relationships

Therapy can provide a space to better understand how neurodivergence may influence emotions, communication, relationships and everyday experiences. We can explore patterns that may be creating difficulties and develop approaches that work with your individual strengths and needs.

Mental Health Support

Neurodivergent people may experience anxiety, depression, stress, overwhelm or difficulties with emotional regulation alongside the challenges of everyday life.

Therapy provides a supportive space to understand these experiences and develop practical strategies that are suited to your individual needs. We can explore the relationship between neurodivergence, mental health, relationships and life circumstances, while working towards greater confidence and wellbeing.

Goal Setting

Therapy can help you identify what you would like to change, develop or better understand, and turn those priorities into practical, achievable goals.

Goals might relate to relationships, emotional regulation, confidence, communication, everyday routines, managing demands or navigating life changes. We can work at a pace that suits you and adapt strategies as your needs and circumstances change.

Supporting Families

Neurodivergence can affect the whole family, particularly when family members have different ways of communicating, responding to emotions or managing everyday demands.

Family therapy can provide a space for family members to develop greater understanding of each other, improve communication and find practical ways to support one another.

I work with families to understand patterns within their relationships and develop approaches that recognise the needs, strengths and perspectives of each family member.

Relationships and social situations can sometimes be difficult to navigate, particularly when communication, expectations or emotional responses differ between people.

Therapy can provide a space to explore social and emotional experiences, develop greater self-understanding and build practical strategies for communicating needs, managing emotions and navigating relationships.

The focus is on finding approaches that work for you, rather than trying to fit you into a particular way of interacting or communicating.

Therapy can support you to develop practical strategies for managing the everyday demands of life in ways that work with your individual needs and strengths.

This might include managing routines and competing demands, emotional regulation, communication, relationships, problem-solving, decision-making or adjusting to change.

We can identify what is getting in the way and work towards practical strategies that make everyday life more manageable and sustainable.

My approach is guided by your individual needs, strengths and goals. Depending on what you are seeking support with, therapy may draw on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), attachment and trauma-informed approaches, emotion-focused approaches and neuroscience-informed treatment planning.

Rather than applying a single approach to everyone, I work with you to identify strategies and ways of working that are relevant to your circumstances and support meaningful change.

Every person is unique, and therapy is tailored to your individual needs, strengths, circumstances and goals.
