Coaching and Psychotherapy

With a Post-graduate Advanced Diploma in Transactional Analysis (Psychotherapy), and an MA in Autism, I offer one-to-one psychotherapy online and face-to-face in West Wales. 

My passion is to work alongside individuals, encouraging their unique understanding of themselves from a position of "I'm OK, You're OK".   As an autistic woman with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, I understand what it is like to live in a culture where people who perceive things differently and think differently, can feel marginalised wondering where and how they fit in. I love to bring into my work an intuitive, relational approach, supporting others to become the best of who they are, without them having to continually adapt and mask their uniqueness to meet the expectations of others. 

I offer:

• Psychotherapy
  
  
• Screening Assessments (Please note a screening is not a diagnosis but a part of the pre-diagnostic process).
  
  
• Psychotherapy and post-diagnostic support for neurodivergent people
  
  
• Psychotherapy and coaching for people who are wondering whether they might be neurodivergent and/or waiting for a diagnostic assessment
  
  
• Functional Fluency Coaching - this supports a person's awareness of how they perceive themselves and interact with other people. Click here for more information.

Group Therapy

April and Cathie will be hosting an online post-diagnostic support group for autistic people, starting on Thursday 17 October 2024, from 6.30 till 8.30 pm, for six consecutive weeks. The group will provide a safe, supportive environment for autistic people to make sense of who they really are post-diagnosis, helping them to navigate their own unique way forward in a society that has yet to readily embrace difference.  The cost is £50 per session with a payment of £300 made in advance for the duration of the group.

If you are interested in finding joining us, email April april.white007@icloud.com 

or Cathie therapy@vivacitysocialwork.co.uk

Individual pre-group meetings will be organised to discuss your needs and whether the group is right for you.
