Neurodivergent therapy for clients in Little Eaton, Erewash

The clinic is at Wilson Street in Derby's DE1 postcode, 4 miles from Little Eaton and reachable via the A61 in about 8 minutes on a normal weekday morning. Nearby areas including Borrowash, Ockbrook, Chellaston are all within an easy service radius.

The work draws on neurodivergent-affirming psychotherapy, hypnotherapy for regulation, late-diagnosis identity work — chosen based on what your nervous system, your history, and your current life actually need. That flexibility is the point.

The approach in practice

  1. Step 1

    Start with regulation

    Nothing is processed while your nervous system is dysregulated. Sessions begin with body-level tools that work the same day.

  2. Step 2

    Prepare for real life

    The final phase rehearses the pattern under normal life stress, so results don't collapse the moment life gets busy.

  3. Step 3

    Consolidate the change

    Change has to hold beyond the session. Self-hypnosis, a short practice or a home task keeps it embedded.

  4. Step 4

    Map what's actually happening

    The first sessions build a clear picture of the pattern — not just the symptoms, but the driver underneath.

Before you get in touch

Will I be pushed to make eye contact?+

Here in Little Eaton, No. Session norms are adjusted to what works for you.

Do you work with AuDHD?+

Yes. Many clients are both autistic and ADHD, and the work is adjusted for that combined load.

Do I need a formal diagnosis?+

No. Self-identified adults are welcome and the work does not depend on paperwork.

Is online better for neurodivergent clients?+

For many, yes — reduced travel and sensory friction can make attendance easier and sessions richer.

Do you use PDA-aware pacing?+

Yes, where relevant — pressure and demand are dialled down deliberately.

Why clients choose this practice

This practice is BACP-registered, PSA-accredited via the CNHC, and GHSC-accredited for clinical hypnotherapy. That combination — psychotherapy plus advanced hypnotherapy — is deliberately unusual.

  • Sessions are adjusted for sensory load and processing style.
  • You can bring stims, fidgets or sensory tools — this is not a mask-required space.
  • Late-diagnosis identity work is central, not a footnote.
