ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Sandra. I am a counsellor and, as neurodivergent person myself, I know exactly what it’s like to feel out of sync with the world around you. I know the exhaustion of constantly trying to fit in, and the heavy pressure of always doing what you are "supposed" to do, rather than what your mind and body actually need.

If you feel like you don't quite fit the mold, you are in the right place. Many of the people I work with come to me because they feel different. Often, when they’ve bravely reached out for support in the past, they’ve left feeling misunderstood. Maybe you have been told things like, “You just need to learn to adapt”, “I can give you the tools to help you fit in” or “Don't worry, everybody struggles with this”. Even if that advice was well-intentioned, it probably didn’t feel right—and more importantly, it didn’t work.

Standard advice doesn't work for neurodivergent minds. We experience and process the world differently, which means we need a different approach. That is exactly why I am here. I want to offer the kind of true, affirming support we actually need, using the right tools designed for how our brains work.

My goal is to help you put down the weight you've been carrying. You have likely been carrying the burden of expectations for a very long time. I am here to help you lift that weight, figure out how to navigate life on your own terms, and ultimately, find genuine happiness and comfort in being exactly who you are.

Always learning, always growing. To make sure I can support you in the best way possible, I am constantly learning. The people I work with teach me so much every single day, and I combine that shared, lived experience with my formal education from various universities. I am deeply passionate about researching new techniques, exploring different therapeutic approaches, and bringing the most helpful, up-to-date tools into our space to share with you.
