Individual coaching for neurodivergent adults navigating burnout, complex trauma, and systemic challenges

I work with autistic and ADHD adults who are exhausted from trying to fit into neurotypical systems. You're not broken. The systems are broken. And you deserve support that doesn't ask you to fix yourself, but helps you understand what's actually happening and find your way through it.

You might be:

  • Burned out from years of masking and adapting

  • Carrying complex trauma from workplaces, relationships, or systems that didn't accommodate you

  • Grieving what you've lost (career, identity, possibilities) without clear resolution

  • Navigating moral crisis or impossible choices

  • Struggling in systems designed for neurotypical people

  • Looking for someone who gets it, who won't rush you toward breakthrough or ask you to perform resilience

Neurodivergent adults often bring overlapping challenges: complex trauma, burnout, ambiguous loss, grief, systemic harm.

Quick fixes don't work.

Real change requires time, consistency, and a relationship where you feel safe enough to bring what's actually hard.

This isn't traditional coaching with goal-setting and accountability structures. It's slower, more relational work.

We pay attention to:

  • What's actually happening in your body, not just your thoughts

  • How systems have failed you, not just how you're "failing"

  • Overlapping trauma, grief, and burnout that don't resolve neatly

  • What you need to survive and eventually thrive

Most clients find that 18-20 sessions is where the deepest, most nutritive work happens. Not because we're slow, but because we're working with complexity that deserves careful attention.

Years or decades of burnout

  • Complex trauma from multiple systems

  • Overlapping ADHD and autism challenges

  • Grief and loss that don't resolve quickly

  • Learning to trust after being failed by so many systems

We're not fixing a problem. We're rebuilding a relationship with yourself and finding ways to survive (and eventually thrive) in a world not built for you.

That takes time. And it's worth it.

I'm a coach, not a therapist. I don't diagnose or treat mental health conditions.

But I work with the complexity that neurodivergent adults bring:

  • Burnout (not depression, but exhaustion from years of masking)

  • Complex trauma responses (not PTSD treatment, but understanding how past harm affects you now)

  • Grief and loss (not clinical grief counseling, but presence with what you're carrying)

  • Nervous system regulation (somatics, not clinical intervention)

If you need clinical mental health treatment, I'll support you in finding that. What I offer is relational support, systemic understanding, and companionship through what's hard."

Typically:

  • You know what it takes to help others and yourself succeed.

  • You value introspection, creativity, and social engagement.

  • You want to make things better—for others, for your community, and for yourself.

  • You want to bring all of your gifts, talents, and passions into your work.

  • You feel a calling that goes beyond a traditional 9-to-5.

  • You sense an urgency about the changes you want to make.

  • You need an approach to learning and growth that brings real results.

  • You welcome spirituality, psychology, philosophy, and ethics into your leadership development.

You also may be experiencing experiencing one or more of the following:

  • A challenging transition in your life, career, or leadership

  • Changes in your sense of mission, calling, and vocation

  • Difficulties leading in volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) times

  • Stress, burnout, and depletion from taking on too much

  • Conflicts over priorities, values, or personalities 

  • Imposter syndrome

  • Cultural changes and misalignment

  • Struggles in balancing it all

When we work together, I will be the catalyst, but you will set the agenda. Here is the process:

We start with a free, no-obligation planning session to establish chemistry and clarify your goals. Based on that session, I will design a learning plan that will frame the engagement. This learning plan will offer a guide we can adapt as we go.

  • We continue with nine 50-minute sessions over the next three months. 

  • We meet each of the first three weeks of the month, and you will work independently during the fourth.

  • We design action steps for you to take between sessions to further your growth.

  • We share in safety and confidence. 

  • We work holistically, valuing every part of you: Your strengths, passions, values, and resources and the roles you play. 

  • We work in the present looking to the future—instead of trying to fix the past.

  • We clarify your goals and purpose.

  • We celebrate new, resilient habits of thinking and being.

  • We embrace your new path.
