Please note, I have changed the names to protect client identities.
Emma – Health Practitioner – NHS – ADHD & Dyslexia
Reframing labels and beliefs has helped me see that things I had labelled as my “weirdness” were often actually important forms of self-regulation. Some of the guilt and shame is beginning to drop away.
David – Digital Systems Specialist – IT – Autistic / PDA
Leigh helped me understand my value system, and we used this to develop an Access Rider. This became something tangible I could use to help me work out why certain aspects of work life have been challenging in the past.
For the first time in a long while, I feel able to make career decisions based on who I actually am, not who I think I should be.
Laura – Nutrition Coach – ADHD and co-occurring health condition
At the start, I said I wanted someone “in my corner”, and that is exactly how it felt. Leigh went at my pace, which was crucial given my fatigue levels, and I never felt overwhelmed.
As a coach myself, I recognise that the balance of space and stretch has made all the difference, and I have always left sessions clearer than when I arrived.
Stephen – Entrepreneur – IT Sector – ADHD
Leigh has a way of asking the right question at exactly the right moment. She helped me see patterns in my behaviour, particularly around saying yes too quickly, overworking, and inherited beliefs about achievement that I am not sure I would have noticed without our conversations.
Rebecca – Independent Creative – Corporate Branding – AuDHD
My time with Leigh felt safe; I could put anything on the table, even mad ideas, and explore them properly.
She asks questions which make you think more carefully about even your little throwaway comments, and from these, whole new thoughts appear. I really enjoyed working with her and will do again without a doubt.
Joanne – Education Consultant – Higher Education – ADHD & querying Autism
I think we had more of a mentor relationship; everything felt very practical and collaborative. We tested ideas out together. She told me about things she had tried, what had worked and what hadn’t. It all felt like building a toolkit together. Some things didn’t work, and that felt ok; it felt like lots of interesting experiments.
Daniel – Technical manager – Telecoms Sector – AuDHD
Starting to recognise my body, the signals it is sending me when I am getting anxious, or things are starting to feel out of control, felt like one of the game-changers Leigh talks about.
Understanding what things I could do to regain energy or to help myself cope with things which will always drain my energy has reduced my shutdowns dramatically.
Oliver – Senior Logistics Manager – National Infrastructure
I really valued having a dedicated space to think. Talking my thoughts through with Leigh brought focus to my thinking, which led to several surprising lightbulb moments around assumptions I had been unconsciously making.
