Currently on maternity leave, I'm back in September <3

Hello and welcome to my page,

It’s lovely you’re here!

#notbroken

I offer online therapy for first-time mums with ADHD (diagnosed or suspected) who are overwhelmed, exhausted, and convinced something is wrong with them (It isn't). It's just how your brain is wired and understanding that changes everything.

#areyoufeelingthis?

Snapped at the bub over something tiny, then cried in the bathroom about it? 🤦‍♀️

Running on caffeine, chaos and 4 hours sleep? 😴

Touched out by 4pm and still got bedtime, dinner and a partner who wants to talk?🫣

Wondering why everyone else seems to have their s**t together and you don't? 😥

If "surviving" feels generous some days, you're in the right place.🥰

"Same me. Same chaos of new motherhood. Completely different experience."

I'm Abi, a counsellor and a mum who understands what this can feel like, because I've lived a version of it myself. With my first child, undiagnosed ADHD had me drowning. With my second, understanding my brain changed everything.

More About Me

#allthreetogether

Understand

Why your ADHD brain makes motherhood feel harder than it looks for everyone else.

Regulate

A polyvagal-informed approach to notice the build-up before you flood.

Belong

How It Works
A woman in glasses and casual clothing holding a baby in a gray carriersack on a dirt trail in a sunlit wooded area. The woman is smiling at the camera, and the text overlay reads "My First Baby."

#whatactuallychanges

"Hard days still happen. They just don't wreck the whole week anymore"

  • curiosity instead of shame 🧐

  • noticing before flooding 😯

  • moments of real presence 😌

  • understood at home 🏠

  • shorter recovery time ⏰

  • guilt that passes 🌬️

The text "My Second Baby" is overlaid on the image. Behind them, through the car window, there is a parking lot with a silver car and some trees in the background.

“I should be able to cope on my own."

Needing support is a sign you're taking your wellbeing seriously, not a sign you're failing.

"I don't want to be judged as a bad mum."

Seeking support tells me everything about the kind of mother you are. No judgement here.

"There's no right way to begin. Just begin"
