Hi, I’m Toni.
I’m a counsellor and coach, a mum, and co-founder of a community interest company providing neurodivergent support for adults and families.
I offer a calm, supportive space for people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, burnt out, or unsure of themselves. Many of the people I work with are navigating ADHD, autism, late diagnosis, masking, identity shifts, emotional overwhelm, or the feeling that life has become too much to keep carrying in the same way.
My work is gentle, practical, and neurodivergent-affirming. I do not believe support should be about fixing who you are. It is about understanding what you have been carrying, making sense of your patterns, and finding ways forward that feel realistic for your life and your brain.
Through counselling, I offer space to explore emotions, past experiences, relationships, self-worth, burnout, and the impact of trying to cope for a long time.
Through coaching, I support people to move forward with more clarity, structure, and self-trust, especially during times of change, transition, or rebuilding.
Alongside my private practice, I co-founded Unmasked Neurodiversity Network CIC, a community organisation supporting neurodivergent adults and families through counselling and community projects.
Whether you are looking for counselling, coaching, or simply beginning to understand yourself differently, you are welcome here.

I believe you don't need fixing.
Whether you're coming to counselling or coaching, my role isn't to tell you who you should be.
Instead, I offer a supportive, collaborative space where we can explore what's getting in the way, recognise your strengths and help you move towards a life that feels right for you.
Every person is different, so I tailor my approach to your individual needs. Depending on what you're looking for, I may draw on a range of approaches, including Person-Centred Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy and creative techniques.
My coaching is strengths-based, practical and designed to help you move forward with confidence.
I regularly work with adults with:
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor, committed to working ethically and maintaining high professional standards through ongoing supervision and continuing professional development.
My qualifications include:
I am fully insured, ICO registered and work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework.
When I'm not working with clients, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, walking my dogs, enjoying the outdoors or developing new resources to support the neurodivergent community.
I'm also the co-founder of Unmasked Neurodiversity Network CIC, a community interest company providing affordable neurodiversity-affirming counselling, coaching and support.
I'm passionate about making support more accessible and helping people feel understood, accepted and empowered.
Whether you're looking for counselling to process the past or coaching to
help shape your future, I'd be honoured to support you.
I'd love to help you take the next step.
