Coaching Services
If you are already diagnosed, self-identify, or have recently been screened or diagnosed as neurodivergent, we offer a range of coaching to support you.
Coaching
Coaching is different from talking therapies and counselling. It isn’t a therapeutic model, it is led by you, at a pace that feels right for you.
It is great if you don’t feel you need therapy to get past trauma or challenging life experiences, but would like to explore your neurodivergent identity. We can help you set goals, make sense of your experiences, lean into your neurodivergence, and support you to put in place scaffolding around any executive function challenges.
At DL, we believe that all neurodivergent people deserve a neuroaffirming approach. We have this at the heart of our practice, and will support you to become kinder and more neuroaffirming to yourself.
How it works
We help you become empowered to harness your neurodivergent strengths through neuroaffirming coaching.
We aim to bring clarity and confidence to people who wish to explore the full range of their personality and experience, including their sensory and emotional experiences.
Knowledge is power – if it’s knowledge of your own neurodivergence, it can empower you to feel more whole and less exhausted by masking. We believe that every neurodivergent person should have the freedom and support to choose their own path. We’re here to help you do just that.
We specialise in a number of approaches to coaching, including:
Neuroaffirming neurobiology exploration
Perimenopause, menopause and hormone discovery
Sensory matrix assessment and sensory plan development
Trauma and the neurodivergent experience
Giftedness, twice-exceptionality and neurodivergence
Building a neuroaffirming family
Nervous system exploration and reset
We encourage you to book a free 15 minute consultation with us to discuss your needs and see if we are a good fit for each other.

Neuroaffirming Neurobiological Exploration
When you have had a diagnosis of neurodivergence, you can end up with a sense of 'now what?'
With this new information about yourself, you may feel grief, a sense of loss, or like a puzzle piece has clicked into place. Or a mix of a range of conflicting emotions and sensations.
You are likely to have questions. Who am I now? How do I process this? Am I masking? How do I unmask or shed ableist views about myself and the world?
You may also feel scared.
This coaching approach supports you to uncover all your questions and connect with your true self.
Investment: £120 per session. Or six sessions for £600. Payment plans available.
-
Thriving Hormones Coaching
Coaching - to support whatever stage of life you are at in relation to your neurodivergence and your hormones - is a hugely affirming process.
Together, we can safely explore how your changing hormones over your lifetime are impacting you.
Recommended for neurodivergent people who are struggling with executive function, PMDD or challenging PMT, are perimenopausal or menopausal.
We suggest having a block of six sessions taken over a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 6 months.
Investment: £120 per session. Six sessions are £600. Payment plans available.
-
Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching
ND trauma can be micro aggressions like being misunderstood, othered or isolated, and that lodges in our bodies. We then repeat behaviours and reactions related to this past trauma that now doesn't serve us.
Emotions override our logical capabilities every time. And it takes conscious awareness to change those patterns.
Through gentle coaching, questioning, and exploration of how you're feeling in your body and nervous system, we can start to structure a neuroaffirming life. Together, we can find what is blocking you and help you move past that in a safe nurturing space.
Investment: £120 per session. Six sessions are £600. payment plans available.
-
Sensory Matrix Assessment and Sensory Coaching
We can be traumatised by our sensory experience, and then further traumatised by not being believed and pathologised. Understanding your sensory world allows for a fuller understanding of our neurobiology and experience.
Optional pre-assessment consultation, Sensory Matrix questionnaire with option to have follow up appointment. Sensory coaching also available.
Investment:
Sensory Matrix only £65
Sensory Matrix and follow up £95
Consultation and coaching: £120 each

Giftedness and Twice-Exceptionality Coaching
More coming soon.

Nervous System Exploration & Reset
Our nervous system is central to how we experience the world.
As an ND individual your nervous system is poised to notice signs of danger more than signs of safety. This is because of your unique brain wiring and any microaggressions you've experienced that may have caused complex trauma.
In this neuroaffirming coaching practice, we help you identify what you are feeling in your body. We support you to work through these somatic signals. And reframe your experiences from a deep knowledge of the nervous system.
Investment: £120 per session or £600 for six sessions. Payment plans available.
