Jonathan Drury - Autism Coaching & Counsel

Jonathan Drury - Autism Coaching & Counsel

Whoever you are and wherever you are, I'd like to help. You can book a chat with me right now at the link below.

I offer sessions Online and in North Derbyshire.

Using a unique combination of coaching, counselling and dialogue, I've helped hundreds of people recover from the impacts of the world and thrive. My approach is designed for autistic people and their families to regain perspective, energy and empowerment - and transform their lives. My belief is that you too can reclaim your life as a healthy and self-aware person.

I offer help with:

  • Autistic Burnout
  • Stress and anxiety
  • Working too hard
  • Socially drained
  • Going through a rough time
  • Family and relationships
  • Pre-diagnosis and newly-diagnosed support
  • Curious about going for an assessment or not
  • Personal problems
  • Work and study blocks
  • Business plans and ideas
  • Time and task management
  • Vision fulfilment and making big decisions
  • Working out who you are and what you want to be
  • Parents and family members of autistic people.

What I offer:

Our sessions are centred on your experience as an autistic or neurodivergent person. We explore the way forward together, from a strengths-based perspective; this may be different to support you have previously experienced and some people find a huge sense of relief when they realise they don’t need to be ‘fixed’.

I have years of personal and professional experience in autism and coaching and have coached many people and groups. I have also trained hundreds of life coaches, therapists and counsellors - to help them give better support to autistic and neurodivergent people. This experience enables me to offer a deep level of understanding and insight to support you in your unique situation.

Whether coaching or counselling, I offer you quality time to talk and think in confidence, to help you recover, take the right action (for you), and make the changes you want and need. I will be with you every step of the way - helping you recover and celebrate changes and a new life!

Increasing your self-awareness can be scary, but with proper support it can be done. I know because I've done it. I know what it is to be at the lowest points with Autism and ADHD, but also the highest.

More info:

  • Sessions are usually one-hour and can be weekly or fortnightly. 
  • I might suggest 6 or 10 sessions then we review together to either continue or let you 'go it alone' for a time. Some people come back after a while; I am totally flexible in that respect.
  • We can meet online (Zoom etc.) or in North Derbyshire.

I am:

  • Qualified with a lifetime of experience
  • A supervisor available for therapists, counsellors and coaches
  • Creator of the Autism Dialogue Approach® and author of The Autism Dialogue Approach Handbook (Routledge 2025)
  • Insured and supervised
