Full Coaching
Are you looking for a personal trainer who gets what it’s like to be neurodivergent? Being autistic and having ADHD means I get it without needing explanation. My full coaching packages are designed with for autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent individuals who want to build strength, confidence, and a sustainable approach to fitness—without overwhelm. It’s not just about setting gym based workouts, it is working with your brain. We will work to incorporate fitness into your routine in a way that works for you.
My Approach
-
Sensory-Aware Training
Environments, movements, and equipment selected to prevent overwhelm and maximise comfort.
-
Executive Function Support
Flexible scheduling, reminders, and accountability systems that work with ADHD and autistic brains.
-
Routine Building
Gradual, sustainable habit formation that avoids the burnout cycle
-
Embracing Your Strengths
Focus on what your unique neurotype brings to fitness rather than trying to force neurotypical approaches.
Full Coaching
with Not So Typical Fitness
-
A fully personalised training programme tailored to you. It will be mindful of your sensory requirements, your schedule and be flexible to account for fluctuating energy levels when life throws curve balls or unexpected situations outside of your programme arise.
-
To suit you and your needs. These can be online or in-person. This is where being with a neurodivergent coach can make the difference. I understand the need for routine, predictability and I don’t need you to explain because trust me - I get it. Prefer check-ins fortnightly? No problem. Prefer it over coffee? Let’s do it.
-
On-going support and adjustments as needed to help you reach your goals. Direct messaging through a specialist fitness app. Accountability on tap and cheering when needed. I’ve got you!
-
Nutrition guidance that works for you (no rigid meal plans!). Support and ideas to help you do what you need to meet your nutritional goals along with explanations about why you should make adjustments. Currently studying Level 4 Nutrition to be able to offer more support.
-
An understanding of the challenges that come with being autistic, having ADHD or being neurodivergent. Having struggled with depression, anxiety and an on-going eating disorder, I can offer support and strategies to try to make fitness enjoyable. Even when life is hard, exercise and fitness can be a place to escape to and has the added benefit of releasing endorphins and dopamine (both of which are mood enhancing!).
-
Tools to help with motivation, executive function, and consistency from someone who gets it! This includes things I do when going to the gym feels too overwhelming so you can maintain progress even when things get hard. I provide visual guides, decision free workout options and simple changes to incorporate into your existing routine.
You deserve a coach who gets it. Whether you're starting out or looking to level up, my approach ensures you feel supported every step of the way.
