Understanding, reassuring and supporting neurodivergent people & parents of neurodivergent children
Are you someone who feels like they may be neurodivergent, or relates to a lot of the material being posted online about neurodivergence but doesn’t know quite how they feel about it or what to do?
Or are you wondering if your child might be neurodivergent? And if they are… how you can best support them and help them regulate?
Hi! I’m Emma, and I’m an accredited health and life coach.
I work with neurodivergent adults and parents of neurodivergent children to help them achieve what they want in their lives and feel confident and happy.
When I found out about my own neurodivergence aged 35, everything changed for me. I had just come through a battle with post natal depression and ended my marriage… I was on a mission to figure out what I wanted in life and how to be the best role model for my son.
ADHD and ASD gave me an answer to a lot of the struggles I’d faced throughout my life, and I set out to spread awareness and help others who are on the same journey. My ultimate goal is to ensure that future generations of neurodivergent children don’t have to go through what we did.
I am an ICF accredited Health and Life Coach (BHC/BLC).

Exploring neurodiversity
Accepting that you may be neurodivergent can be confusing and overwhelming, and it’s often a very challenging thing to go through and accept about yourself.
Having been through the journey myself, I wanted to create some options for people in that situation to get some support and reassurance that they are on the right lines and it is ok to go and get help or ask for a diagnosis if you want one.
You are never a burden, your health is just as important as the next person’s and you deserve this space… but it can be very difficult to believe that.
Are you struggling to accept your own neurodiversity, or to know how to best support your neurodivergent child?

What my clients say about me
“I found Emma on social media and your content is so relatable, and you really unapologetically bring yourself to your content without being fake – you have good days and bad days just like everyone. This made you seem so approachable for me. I knew that you could help me without judging me.”
– Amanda
“Emma spent some really valuable time with me after we met at a networking meeting. She helped me to get a lot of clarity around the steps I wanted to take to understand my brain better, and I was able to plan what I wanted to do next with her help and input. Emma is a kind and caring coach, and a great listener. She really knows her stuff and is well worth consulting.”
