Somatic therapy for neurodivergent adults
You aren’t broken.
You’ve been working overtime in a world that wasn’t built for how you’re wired.
Heal your trauma, regulate your nervous system and reconnect with your body
so you finally stop performing and start living as your authentic self.
WHY YOU’RE LIKELY HERE
You’ve spent your whole life trying to figure out what’s “wrong” with you, when really, you’ve just been living in a world that wasn’t
built for your nervous system.
Maybe you’ve always felt too much. Too sensitive. Too intense. Like your body responds differently to everything and you can’t quite explain why.
Or maybe you learned early on to push through, to mask, to make yourself fit, even when it meant disconnecting from what your body was trying to tell you.
You’ve tried therapy. You’ve read the books. You understand yourself intellectually, but your nervous system is still stuck in patterns you can’t think your way out of.
Now your exhausted. Burnout isn’t just a possibility anymore, it’s where you’re living. Your body is asking you to slow down but you don’t know how.
If any of this resonates, you’re not alone.
Many neurodivergent adults find somatic therapy after years of trying to “fix” themselves, exhausted from working so hard just to feel okay in their own brain and body.
That’s where we start.
WHO THIS WORK IS FOR?
This work is for you if you’re:
ADHD, Autistic, HSP or otherwise neurodivergent
Exhausted from masking and trying to fit neurotypical expectations
Experiencing burnout, shutdown or chronic dysregulation
Struggling with sensory overwhelm or emotional intensity
Tired of talking therapy that doesn’t address what your body is holding
Struggling with sensory overwhelm or emotional intensity
If you suspect some of your “symptoms” might be trauma responses and you are ready to work with your nervous system, not against it.
Get in touch.
WHY WORK WITH ME?
I know what it’s like to believe you’re broken.
I also know what it’s like to discover you never were.
I’m Rachael and I’m neurodivergent.
In my late 30s, I received multiple diagnoses and went on a mix of medication. I trained as an ADHD coach and redesigned my life around my limitations.
Then I discovered somatic therapy and everything changed.
As I continued my training and working on myself, I healed the trauma my body had been holding for decades. This led to the realisation that so many of my “symptoms” were actually trauma responses. I no longer needed medication. I no longer meet the diagnostic criteria I’d been given.
I’m still neurodivergent. I’m just not suffering.
My brain works differently and that’s not something to fix. But I’m no longer drowning in unhealed trauma disguised as permanent conditions.
I’m trained in somatic therapy, ADHD-informed coaching, polyvagal theory, mindbody coaching and chronic pain healing. All approaches that I weave together to support neurodivergent nervous systems.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
After your connection call, we meet for one-hour sessions as often as feels right for your nervous system.
In our sessions, you’ll:
Recognise your shutdown before it happens, catch the early signals your body sends instead of hitting a wall and wondering “how did I get here again?”
Release what you’ve been carrying in your body, the trauma, stress and overwhelm that talk therapy couldn’t touch because it was never stored in words.
Stop performing “normal” and start feeling like yourself, build the capacity to unmask safely, set boundaries without guilt, and honour your actual needs.
Find your regulation toolkit, body-based practices that work for YOUR neurodivergent system, not generic mindfulness that never quite fit.
Understand what’s trauma and what’s neurodivergence, learn to distinguish between trauma responses that can heal and neurodivergent traits that are just how you’re wired.
