😂 ADHD confession time...

I've reached that stage of ADHD where I don't even look for things anymore.

I just carry on with my day and wait for them to reappear.

Be honest...

What's the longest you've spent looking for something that was right in front of you? 👇🤣

Hi,I'm Kayleigh a qualified Psychotherapist and Neurodiversity Professional offering online therapy and support for adults, young people, and parents navigating ADHD, autism, and neurodivergent family life.

Alongside my private practice, I work as a Registered Service Manager within supported accommodation services, supporting young people with complex emotional, behavioural, and neurodevelopmental needs. I bring together therapeutic knowledge, clinical experience, and real-world understanding of the challenges neurodivergent individuals and families face every day.

My approach is informed by specialist training in Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP) and the PACE model (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, and Empathy), helping individuals and families move away from shame, conflict, and overwhelm towards greater understanding, connection, and emotional wellbeing.

I understand that traditional advice often fails to account for how neurodivergent minds work. Whether you are struggling with organisation, emotional regulation, anxiety, parenting challenges, burnout, or simply trying to make sense of yourself, therapy can provide a space to be understood without judgement.

Areas I support include:

• Adult ADHD and Executive Functioning
Support with routines, organisation, task management, motivation, emotional regulation, and ADHD related burnout.

• Neurodiversity Informed Parenting Support
Helping parents move beyond behaviour management strategies and develop stronger therapeutic relationships with their children through connection, understanding, and co-regulation.

• Anxiety, Stress and Emotional Wellbeing
Providing a safe and supportive space to explore anxiety, overwhelm, low self esteem, life transitions, and emotional difficulties.

• Young People and Neurodiversity
Supporting teenagers and young adults who may be struggling with identity, confidence, education, relationships, emotional regulation, or navigating life with ADHD or autism.

• Access to Work Support
Supporting UK clients who are accessing or considering Access to Work funding and workplace adjustments.

In addition to my professional training, I have explored alternative approaches to wellbeing and personal growth internationally, including experiences in Peru learning about indigenous healing traditions and different perspectives on mental health and human connection.

You do not need a formal diagnosis to access support.

I offer a free 20-minute discovery call where we can discuss what brings you to therapy, what support you are looking for, and whether we are the right fit to work together.

🎵 Currently on repeat.

"I used to be so hard on myself."

A lyric that will resonate with a lot of people.

Music can be incredibly powerful.

They called her difficult.

I've lost count of how many children and young people I've worked with who have been labelled as difficult, challenging, manipulative, attention seeking or defiant.

Yet when we slow down and become curious, we often find something very different beneath the behaviour.

Trauma.
Anxiety.
ADHD.
Loss.
Overwhelm.
Unmet needs.

Behaviour is communication.

When we stop asking "What's wrong with them?" and start asking "What happened to them?", everything changes.

💭 Sitting quietly and reflecting after a long day of learning.

One thing I've noticed throughout my career is how quickly children can become defined by their behaviour.

🚫 Defiant.
🚫 Non compliant.
🚫 Attention seeking.
🚫 Disruptive.

Yet these words rarely tell us what is actually happening for the child.

I've worked with young people who were described as "challenging", only to discover they were carrying grief, trauma, anxiety, ADHD, autism, bullying, low self esteem, or simply years of feeling misunderstood.

The more I learn, the less interested I become in asking:

❓ "What's wrong with this child?"

And the more interested I become in asking:

💡 "What has this child experienced, and what are they trying to tell us?"

Children don't always have the words.

Behaviour often becomes the language.

🧠 Perhaps the question isn't how we manage behaviour.

❤️ Perhaps the question is how we become more curious.

This week, during my DDP and PACE training, I've been reflecting on generational trauma and the impact it can have on our lives.

We often focus on behaviour without stopping to consider the experiences, relationships and coping strategies that may have shaped it.

What if we moved away from asking, "What's wrong with this person?" and became more curious about their story?

PACE encourages us to approach others with Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity and Empathy.

As professionals, parents and human beings, I think we could all benefit from a little more curiosity and a little less judgement.

Sometimes understanding the story behind the behaviour is where real change begins.

What are your thoughts?

26/05/2026

Today I completed further training in DDP, PACE and Train the Trainer approaches.

One thing that continues to stand out to me is how many behaviours we label as “challenging” are actually protective responses rooted in trauma, attachment difficulties, anxiety or feeling emotionally unsafe.

PACE focuses on Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity and Empathy.

Not punishment.
Not shame.
Not control.

As both a psychotherapist and Registered Service Manager within supported accommodation, I’m passionate about creating environments where young people and adults feel emotionally safe enough to grow rather than simply “managed”.

Trauma informed practice matters.

The media, social media platforms, and even parts of society need to be held accountable for the way ADHD and other invisible disorders are being trivialised.

Awareness should never come at the cost of credibility for people genuinely struggling.

ADHD is recognised under the Equality Act for a reason. For many people it has a substantial and long term impact on daily functioning, education, employment, relationships, emotional regulation, and mental health.

Yet people are still mocked, dismissed, accused of laziness, or treated like they are jumping on a trend.

Leave people alone.

Nobody chooses to live with a brain that constantly races, struggles to switch off, forgets important things, becomes overwhelmed, burns out, or has to work twice as hard just to maintain what others see as “normal.”

ADHD also rarely comes alone. Many people are managing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction struggles, sleep problems, or emotional dysregulation alongside it.

And to the women who have continued to work, study, raise children, build careers, and keep functioning while silently battling all of this behind the scenes:
you deserve recognition, not eye rolls.

Some of the strongest people are the ones fighting battles nobody can physically see.

New guidance on the safe use of mental health apps has been published, a welcome and timely step as more people turn to digital tools for support.

We welcome clear standards that will help protect users, strengthen data security and promote evidence-based care in a fast-growing market. However, safeguards must keep pace with innovation so people can trust the support they’re accessing.
