Westend Counselling

Westend Counselling

I work with clients pre- and post- ASD diagnosis, on emotional regulation, managing anxiety and low mood, sensory overload, who to tell and how, understanding autism and themselves, developing tools for coping at school, home, work, uni and college, and behavioural adaptations.

I also work alongside family members and partners to that they can better understand ASD and what it means for their child/family member/partner, and how to support them.

My main approach is CBT led, but I am integratively trained to use other models of therapy. I have undertaken a range of training in autism, including how to adapt therapy for autistic clients, females and autism, autism and anxiety, emotional regulation and challenging behaviour. I have a daughter with Autism and a son with ADHD.
