About us
I help neurodivergent adults to better understand their personal challenges and find practical solutions to use in the workplace. Identifying strengths and gaining greater self-awareness is the foundation of our conversations.
Some of the benefits you can gain from working with a coach:
- Creating routine and processes to reduce uncertainty and anxiety
- Developing strategies to reduce the impact of your sensory sensitivities
- Managing your time effectively to reduce overwhelm
- Organisation and executive functioning to help you feel more in control
- Practical steps you can take to reduce anxiety
- Increasing self-confidence when speaking at work
- Contributing to group meetings at work
- Reducing exhaustion caused by masking at work
- Developing effective work-related communication with colleagues
- Improved confidence with small-talk and social situations at work
- Preparation for annual review meetings and appraisals to reduce stress
- Establishing a work/life balance to maintain sustainable energy levels
This is not a complete list. If there is anything else that you are finding challenging that is affecting your ability to work effectively and is having a negative impact on you, then please ask me about it.
You do not need a diagnosis to work with me.
What you'll get:
You’ll receive undivided attention and a dedicated thinking partner to support you with any topics or challenges you are facing right now. We may identify specific actions for you to take. Or we may discover that a different way of thinking or a change of mindset is the first step. We’ll work together to find the right solution to help you feel happier.
You bring the topic and we’ll figure out exactly what you want to change or achieve and what the first steps are. But if you’re just feeling ‘stuck’ and you’re not sure what the cause is, then I can help you identify that too.
When we are feeling anxious or overwhelmed, we may not be able to think clearly. This is a natural human stress response to perceived danger. Speaking to someone can help.
Next steps
If you're not yet sure whether coaching can help you, then book a free discovery call with me and we can talk about it. There's no obligation to pay for any sessions.
I want to create an environment where you feel most comfortable, so you can message me on WhatsApp or send an email if you prefer, or we can have a call with cameras off. Taking the first step can be the most difficult part. I'm here to help.

Reviews and feedback provided by clients:
"Working with Wayne has been an incredibly positive and empowering experience. His guidance on mindset, goal setting and supporting in creating clear and actional steps to pursue my goals has been a real step toward driving change in my life. I encourage anyone curious or considering a coach, to look towards Wayne in helping to support their next steps."
"Working with Wayne has been a truly transformative experience. He combines compassion and sensitivity with a wonderfully balanced approach that makes every session feel both safe and productive. He doesn’t let me get stuck in the detail, but instead brings focus to what really matters and encourages me to take practical, meaningful steps toward my goals. I cannot recommend Wayne highly enough."
