Neuroaffirming therapy and coaching
If you are over 18 and seeking to explore, understand, and resolve issues, or make your life better, then you are in the right place. I’m Vauna Beauvais and I am autistic and an ADHD-er. I work well with neurodivergent people (either self-identifying or otherwise validated) and with people who may be questioning their neurotype. I welcome people who are cis, het, or LBTQIA+ and of any of the genders.
What you want is important
-
You may be interested in this because you are seeking therapy about the things that can affect all human beings. You may or may not be neurodivergent. I was unaware that I was autistic for the first 10 years of working as a therapist. I’m qualified to work with any neurotype, and I’m experienced in working with both. For neurodivergent clients, there are many benefits of having a therapist of the same neurotype, because, not only is the connection and communication more natural, but also there is a deep appreciation, from personal lived experience, of living in a neurotypical world. (I say more in my small, but growing, blog).
-
You may be interested in this because you believe that being neurodivergent is a big factor in what is going on in your life right now and you would like a therapist who you can talk to about these things to help gain understanding and to move forward. That may include things such as exploring and questioning whether you are neurodivergent, discussing the issue in your relationships or work, understanding yourself more.
-
You may be interested in this because you’re are aware of having challenges and believe that with coaching you could function better, be on top of things, and achieve more. Or you yearn for being more organised or having things more under control so that you can enjoy life. You may suspect, or have validated, that you have ADHD, or you simply have challenges with executive functioning. You might want to focus the coaching sessions on any area of life, including work and relationships. And you may want to improve your chances with a particular goal outcome, or you might want to apply coaching more widely.
-
You may be interested in this because you and your significant other(s) have been looking into getting some relationship counselling because you’ve found that discussing together isn’t fruitful, or you feel like there are ways in which a therapist could help. I work with adults in any kind of relationship style or configuration, and all lifestyle choices are respected.

Briefly, about me
Understanding how humans work has been a special interest of mine since I was a child. Since my teenage years I have been fascinated with how people could benefit by understanding self and others better, operate in the world more comfortably, and generate a happier life. I’m very happy to have made this the daily work that I do.
Over the years I have studied many ways of approaching working with people. And because I have been seeing clients for 25 years now, I have tried out a lot of ways of working as I have studied different models of therapy, and deeply understood differing approaches to the issues that people experience. So, I work in an eclectic way, deriving my ideas and style from that broad range of sources. In the end, what happens is that I am with a person and all that matters in those sessions is what that person is experiencing and that real help is given.
I’m an accredited member of ACTO, (Association for Counselling and Therapy Online) and as a UKCP registered psychotherapist I abide by the ethics and guidelines of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I’m a Certified Cybertherapist, a Certified Transactional Analyst, and I hold qualifications in Psychotherapy, (MSc) Counselling (PGCDip), Autism (PGCert), Modified Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), and Coaching. I’ve studied ADHD (sometimes known as ADD), Narrative Therapy, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing.
