Coaching for Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Neurodiversity

(and other processing differences)

Do you need support - but don’t know where to start?

Discover how to work with someone who has the knowledge and experience to genuinely help you succeed in changing yourself.

My goal is to ensure you improve your levels of success in your profession, job or craft, and relieve stress.

Benefit from an effective approach based on experience, expertise,and practice.

With over 20 years of experience, learnings, and professional practice, I provide an enhanced level of awareness and understanding of how undermining these minor or larger failures can feel.

My approach to coaching leverages a deep-lived experience of processing differences and is tailored precisely to your unique needs.

Including:

- Memory recall strategies.

- Advice on planning and self-organisation.

- Managing self-esteem concerns

- Developing strategies for managing stress and coping with change.

TAKE THE NEXT STEPS

If you’re finding it tough to organise your time, study, work and home life to get things done efficiently, I have the years of skill and personal experience to help you look at doing it differently in the way that works for you.

Working in partnership with you, we can problem solve together to improve your skills - so you can live a more relaxed and successful life.
