Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy

Therapy should not ask your brain or nervous system to work harder than it already is.

 

If you have ever left therapy exhausted, masked-out, or feeling like you needed to translate yourself first -- this space is intentionally different.

 

  • We begin with nervous system safety.

  • We move gently.

  • Nothing is rushed, forced, or performed.

 

What Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy Means
This approach honours the reality that your brain, sensory system, attention and relationships may simply function differently -- not incorrectly. Therapy adapts to you. Not the other way around.

 

Sensory and Nervous System Awareness
We recognize how bright lights, noise, emotional overload, transitions or rapid verbal processing may affect you.

Sessions are adaptable: including pace, silence, fewer demands, or shifting formats as needed.
 

If Therapy Has Never Felt Built for You
Many neurodivergent folk have felt pressure to mask or “perform wellness". Here there is no expectation to articulate perfectly, maintain eye contact or to push through emotional intensity. You do not need to be regulated to belong here.

 

Support May Look Like
- Gentle co-regulation before insight
- Freedom to pause, slow down, or process indirectly
- One focus at a time (not being pulled in too many directions)
- Optional structure for memory, attention, or transitions
- Respect for sensory needs and capacity limits

 

Neurodivergence and Non-Monogamy
Some neurodivergent people are drawn to non-monogamous or polyamorous relationships because they value freedom, novelty and authenticity. At the same time, multiple relationships may create sensory load, emotional switching or executive fatigue.

 

In this space, we support:
- Relationship structures that honour your attention and pacing
- Communication that accounts for sensory needs and processing variation
- Boundaries that prevent relational burnout
- Naming both the freedom and the overwhelm without judgment

 

Your Agency is Central
You always control the pace. You can ask to slow down, change direction, or pause completely. Our work follows what your nervous system can genuinely hold -- not what a model says should happen.

 

Next Step
If this feels safer than what you have experienced before you are welcome to begin slowly. A free 20-minute consultation allows you to feel things out without pressure to be ready or organized.
