Anxiety makes us afraid. We get so caught up in the uncomfortable symptoms that we forget to listen to its loud whisper that we feel discomfort because it’s time for change.
Maybe it’s time to take that leap and do something that scares you but will no doubt lead to greater things.

It took a long time to accept how my ADHD can be a superpower to me as a therapist.
I kept myself in a box doing what I thought was good for me. Or good enough for me.
As I’ve learned more about myself and my strengths, I realised that I can make a huge difference to neurodivergent clients.
And that fulfilling numerous roles is meaningful and important to me.
There are always going to be people who don’t understand me, clients that won’t find me the right fit for them and people who think I’m crazy. That’s okay! Because those aren’t my people.

As an OT working with intimacy, gender and sexuality, I often have clients that struggle with being themselves in a world that is so cisgender/ heterosexual/ monogamous focused and normalised.
We work together to get to a place where they are comfortable and confident just as they are. To learn to advocate for themselves and their beliefs, and to be strong enough individuals that they don’t get stressed or anxious about being different or even for being judged.
It’s definitely a process and I’m always honoured to be trusted and to be part of their journey.
Everyone should celebrate what makes them unique.
