About me
Welcome, I’m Gemma.
If you are neurodivergent or recognise ND traits in yourself (or someone you care for) and feel that areas of your life, work or relationships are starting to feel difficult, I am here to help you untangle what’s going on and find strategies that work for you.
I help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, lacking in confidence, frustrated and everything else in between.
I offer neuro-affirming sessions to explore life’s challenges, without the pressure to “fix” who you are. Whether you need an energy shake-up, a space to better understand yourself, or a coach to help you explore strategies that work for your brain, I’m here to support you as you make sense of it.
My coaching style is nurturing, balanced with gentle challenge and a touch of humour. During our sessions, we will create a space which is yours to show up as you are and explore.
Coaching with me includes:
- Space for you to be properly listened to
- Time for pause and reflection so you can unpick where you are and where you would like to be
- Space to explore how neurodivergence is showing up for you
- An opportunity to explore and name your strengths
- A chance to unravel what is getting in the way of your clarity and growth
- Support to identify patterns that hold you back (and understand how they have stuck around for so long).
- Dedicated time to consider the changes you want to make
With a Psychology degree, an ICF-accredited coaching qualification and over 20 years’ experience in education, inclusion and neurodiversity, I bring both professional knowledge and real-world experience to my coaching.
You do not have to be neurodivergent (or even curious about neurodiversity) to work with me. My coaching experience to date has encompassed work with schools, workplaces and 1:1 support on topics such as wellbeing, confidence building and achieving professional goals.
Still reading? I warmly invite you to book a free, no-pressure discovery call - an opportunity to have a chat, see if we’re a good fit and ask any questions you may have.
