A safe space to explore, support and celebrate Neurodiversity. Breaking down STIGMA and MYTHS I also work with parents who are struggling.

I am a qualified and experienced Substance Misuse Specialist and Life Coach. I offer a therapeutic and confidential space to explore and support you with a range of mental health issues. This includes exploring the limitations that your past experiences/traumas have on your current quality of life, to providing coaching to help you to implement goals and strategies into your life if you are feeling stuck and unfulfilled. I can work collaboratively with you to help you to overcome anxious thinking pattens, build confidence and self-esteem, improve relationships, reduce substance misuse or work towards abstinence and I have a special interest in Neurodiversity and Sensory Processing Disorder. I can support you with exploring diagnosis, accessing services, understanding and managing symptoms and help you to set goals that will stop life from feeling so overwhelming. I will work with the family together to help you to improve understanding between parents and their children and help to set healthy boundaries and improve communication. All services are provided via Phone call, Zoom or in person if you are in Plymouth. Please contact me via text, call, email or messenger to arrange a good time to have a chat and see if I can support you.

I see this pattern in so many of the people I work with.

They’re capable. Thoughtful. Intelligent.
They know exactly what they need to do.

And yet…
They can’t start.

Or they start and freeze.
Or they avoid it until the shame feels heavier than the task itself.

Not because they’re lazy.
Not because they don’t care.

But because executive function isn’t about willpower, it’s about capacity, safety, and support.

For neurodivergent people especially, tasks that look “small” from the outside can feel overwhelming on the inside.

Paperwork. Emails. Forms. Studying. Life admin.

The mental load builds.
The avoidance grows.
And self-criticism steps in loud and fast.

This is the part that hurts the most, watching yourself struggle with things you know you can do, and quietly wondering why it’s so hard for you.

You’re not broken.
You don’t need fixing.
You need the right kind of support.

And yes, there are ways to make this easier.

If you’re nodding along, you’re not alone 🤍
This space exists because of you.

You’re not lazy or broken.

You just need gentle accountability to help you start, stay with, and finish the task you’ve been avoiding.

If you’re neurodivergent (or just overwhelmed), you probably already know what needs doing.

The problem isn’t motivation, it’s starting, staying focused, and not spiralling into shame halfway through.

That’s exactly why I created Focus & Finish Sessions.

✨ 1:1 supported co-working
✨ No pressure, no judgement
✨ Quiet structure + gentle accountability
✨ Someone there while you actually do the thing

This isn’t therapy or coaching.

It’s practical, human support for admin, forms, emails, studying, creative work, all the stuff that’s been sitting on your to-do list way too long.

If this resonates, you’re in the right place 🤍

Follow along for neurodiversity-affirming support, and message me if you’re ready to finish the thing 🙏

Hey 👋 & welcome to my new followers
I have noticed a few new faces here, so a little re-introduction feels right.

I’m Sally 💛
I was diagnosed with ADHD at 43, I’m a qualified neurodiversity life coach and addiction specialist, and I’ve spent the last 6 years working online with hundreds of adults and children across the world.

Before that, I worked for many years in mainstream statutory addiction services. I’m also a mum to three neurodivergent girls, so this work is both deeply professional and very personal.

What I share here comes from real life experience:
✨ what I’ve seen in systems
✨ what I’ve learned as a coach
✨ and what I live every day as a parent

It was actually when I began working with 18–25 year olds that things really clicked for me, the number of young people with ADHD and autism diagnoses in addiction spaces was striking, far more visible than in adult services. And it raised some big questions about how we support neurodivergent people.

This space is about exploring:
🧠 how non-neuroaffirming practices can cause harm
🧠 why certain patterns develop
🧠 and how small reframes can lead to more compassion and better outcomes

This isn’t about excusing harm, it’s about understanding why it happens, so we can respond differently.

Thank you for being here, for listening, and for learning alongside me.

If this resonates, stick around; and feel free to share with someone who might need it 🤍

Addiction & Neurodiversity….what’s often misunderstood?

For many neurodivergent people, addiction isn’t about lack of willpower or “bad choices.”

It’s about coping.

Coping with constant overwhelm.
Coping with sensory overload.
Coping with anxiety, social exhaustion, poor sleep, and emotions that feel too big to hold alone.

When the world isn’t built for your nervous system, relief can become survival.

Layer in years of masking, being told you’re “too much” or “not enough,” and repeated rejection, and shame takes root.

Not because something is wrong with you…
but because you were never given safety, understanding, or support.

Substances don’t create the pain.
They often numb pain that already existed.

✨ Awareness starts with compassion.
✨ Healing starts when we stop blaming and start listening.

If this resonates, you’re not broken, and you’re not alone.

Addiction isn’t a lack of willpower.

For many neurodivergent people, it’s a nervous system adaptation, not a moral failure.

Last week, at the International Neurodiversity Conference, I spoke about the overlap between neurodivergence, shame, and addiction, and why ADHD and autistic people are so overrepresented in addiction spaces.

When the world feels overwhelming, the brain looks for relief.

Substances or behaviours can regulate emotions, reduce sensory overload, ease rejection, or create predictability.

This isn’t about excusing harm.

It’s about understanding why patterns develop, so support can actually work.

Less blame. More compassion. Better outcomes.

👉 Follow along as we reframe addiction through a neuro-affirming lens, for individuals, families, and the services meant to support them.

Feeling a bit nervous and a bit surreal tonight 👀

Tomorrow I’ll be a guest speaker at the International Neurodiversity Conference, which still feels strange to even type out.

I’ll be speaking about addiction in neurodivergent people not as a lack of willpower or self-control, but as an adaptation shaped by things like trauma, masking, sensory overwhelm, rejection sensitivity and a whole lot of shame.

Nothing fancy. No big claims. Just a hope that reframing addiction through a neuroaffirming, trauma-informed lens might help reduce harm and increase understanding.

Very grateful. Very nervous. And quietly honoured to be asked to be part of it 🫶🏼

As this year comes to a close… ✨

This year has been the hardest one I can remember.
There were moments when I genuinely felt worse than I ever have before.
Not in a dramatic way - just heavy, relentless, and exhausting.
The kind of hard that seeps into your body and makes everything feel fragile. To cope I found myself isolating from others, turning down offers to do things and keeping things very simple. How do we get through and come out the other side? Not always easy. What I do know is that I didn’t “reinvent myself”.
I didn’t find a brand new version of me.
I didn’t magically become stronger overnight.
What I did do was keep going.
I learned that resilience isn’t about pushing harder - it’s about staying present with what’s already there.
About tending to yourself rather than tearing yourself apart to rebuild.
As my wise mamma said:
“You don’t need to reinvent yourself. You need to take care of what’s already there.”

I stopped looking for fixes and started looking for foundations:
The strengths that had carried me before.
The values that hadn’t disappeared, just gone quiet.
The parts of me that were tired, not broken.
This year asked me to slow down, listen more closely, and meet myself with a different kind of honesty and compassion.
And somehow - quietly, imperfectly - I got through it.
Not unchanged.
Not unscarred.
But still me.

If this resonates, you’re not alone.

Happy New Year to all my clients, I’m so grateful for you.
Here’s to carrying this care into 2026.

Merry Christmas, everyone 🤍

However today looks or feels for you busy, quiet, joyful, heavy, or just another day, that’s okay.

Wishing you a gentle day.

Love Sally x
