Blog
Welcome to my blog — a supportive space for ADHD, autistic, and AuDHD women navigating menopause and midlife.
I’m a Psychotherapist and coach, specialising in neurodivergent women’s wellbeing, with a particular focus on the menopause transition. If you’re experiencing increased overwhelm, sensory sensitivity, burnout, or changes in mood and focus during perimenopause or menopause, you’re not alone — and you’re in the right place.
Here, you’ll find expert insights, practical strategies, and compassionate guidance on ADHD and menopause, autism and menopause, and what it means to be AuDHD during midlife. I share tools to help you manage energy, reduce overwhelm, understand hormonal impacts on neurodivergence, and reconnect with yourself during this time of change.
Alongside my menopause-focused content, you’ll also find a range of articles from my earlier work supporting neurodivergent adults more broadly. These posts explore ADHD, autism, emotional wellbeing, and navigating a neurotypical world — all of which remain deeply relevant during menopause and beyond.
Whether you’re newly exploring your neurodivergence, struggling with menopause symptoms, or seeking validation and practical support, this blog is here to help you feel understood, informed, and less alone.
