Caroline O'Gorman Counselling
Counselling for Neurodivergence
I have extensive experience working with Autism and ADHD (both diagnosed and self-diagnosed). I work in a neuro-affirming way to support clients navigating the challenges of ableism.
I bring lived experience of neurodivergence, along with an understanding of how masking and late diagnosis/misdiagnosis can complicate the process of building stability and a steady sense of neurodivergent identity. Self-understanding rarely follows a tidy path, and my approach helps individuals understand themselves, exploring how neurodivergence intersects with their unique life circumstances and how this shapes specific therapeutic needs.
In counselling, we can explore:
• The impact that masking has had on you
• Unmet needs
• Nervous system responses to uncertainty, change and stress
• Creating a life that aligns with your needs and your true identity
My neuro-affirming approach isn't based on "fixing" your autism or ADHD, but on learning to approach your neurotype with curiosity and acceptance. Therapy with me will be an accepting space where we can explore what brought you here.
