About us
Hi, I’m Emer - a coach and strategist with over 15 years' experience across the arts, culture, and social justice sectors. I’ve worked as a publicly funded, award-winning artist, and I bring that same mix of creativity, rigour, and real-world strategy into my coaching.
I’m also AuDHD, dyslexic, dyspraxic, and a long-term carer - so I deeply understand the realities of building a life and career while navigating a neurodivergent brain, care responsibilities, and under-resourced systems.
I work with artists, organisers, professionals, and carers who want practical tools and sustainable ways of working that actually support their brains and their values. My approach blends evidence-based ADHD strategies with lived experience and values-led, trauma-aware coaching .
Expect structure without shame, honest conversation, and small wins that build real change.
I work with clients across sectors via Zoom, always focused on real-life application, creative strategy, and sustainable change.
How I Work
My coaching is collaborative, structured, and grounded in lived experience. I support clients to create systems, routines, and practices that work for your brain. Depending on your needs, sessions might include:
- ADHD-friendly planning & prioritisation
- Values-led goal setting
- Boundaries, communication & self-trust
- Support with creative work, life admin, or career clarity
- Strategic advice for artists, freelancers & organisers (including funding/bid support)
Expect structure without shame, kind accountability, and steps you can actually take.
