About me and my therapy practice

Hi, I’m Rebecca — a late-diagnosed autistic therapist offering counselling for autistic and neurodivergent women across the UK.

My work is grounded in person-centred values, which means I won’t give advice or tell you what to do — instead, I’ll support you to explore your emotions, make sense of your experiences, and find your own answers.

As an autistic woman myself, I have a deep understanding of how autism can present differently in women. I’m passionate about creating an affirming space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself. My sessions are stim-friendly, open-minded, and welcoming of self-diagnosis.


Practice description

I am a fully qualified Therapist with a BA Hons First Class Degree in Person-Centred Counselling from the University of Warwick. 

I specialise in working with issues like:

  • Autistic identity and late diagnosis
  • Burnout, overwhelm and masking
  • Trauma and relational wounds
  • Feeling different, disconnected or isolated
  • Navigating life, work, or relationships as a neurodivergent person

My approach is warm, down-to-earth and trauma-informed. I often integrate gentle somatic (body-based) awareness where helpful, especially when working with trauma or sensory sensitivity.

I’ve previously worked in mental health crisis services and with women impacted by sexual violence, and I welcome clients with complex trauma backgrounds.

I do not diagnose autism, ADHD or other neurodivergence or mental health issues. However I welcome whatever diagnoses you may already have, and welcome and respect self-diagnosis. I can also support and assist you in pursuing a diagnosis if this is something you decide to do. 

My first session

I offer an free initial 15 minute phone call to discuss what you are looking for from therapy and to see if we would be a good fit to work together. 

In our first session we will explore your expectations and goals for therapy and we will discuss the counselling contract.
