Welcome to myturn2talk. At our practice, we understand the diverse ways in which neurodiversity enriches the human experience. We are dedicated to providing you with an affirming and validating space where your unique qualities, strengths, and experiences are respected and embraced.
​Unlock Your Neurotype:
Am I Autistic or ADHD?
Have you ever found yourself pondering the intricacies of your unique traits, challenges, or strengths, wondering if they might be linked to neurotypes such as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Autism-Spectrum-Disorder (ASD)?
These questions are the starting point for a transformative journey.
I recall my own experience, where I wondered if my constant need for stimulation and my tendency to lose track of time were connected to ADHD.
The assessments are designed to provide answers, offering clarity and understanding into your cognitive, emotional, and behavioural patterns. This newfound self-awareness can be a key to unlocking your potential, helping you understand why you think, feel, and act the way you do.

Understanding Your Neurodivergent Profile
​
At myturn2talk, we celebrate the beautiful tapestry of human neurodiversity. Your assessment isn't about labelling; it's about understanding and embracing the uniqueness that makes you, you. Your neurodivergent profile, whether it includes elements of Autism or ADHD, is a cause for celebration.
It doesn't limit you; instead, it provides you with valuable insights to navigate life. Understanding your neurodivergent profile fosters better communication, deeper empathy in your relationships, and the creation of a robust support network.
I've experienced firsthand how understanding my own neurodivergent traits allowed me to communicate more effectively with my loved ones, enhancing the quality of my relationships.
Demystifying the Assessment Process
Embarking on your assessment journey is a courageous step towards self-discovery. It all begins with the Initial Session, where our focus is on getting to know you and understanding what brings you here. This is a judgment-free space where I could openly discuss your experiences. I may inquire about various aspects of your life and might request contact information for sources such as family members, teachers, psychologists, or co-workers. These insights are essential for tailoring your assessment.

Navigating Life with Self-Acceptance
Self-acceptance is a powerful journey, especially when you have a deeper understanding of your neurodivergent traits. Our assessments are designed to celebrate your strengths rather than focus solely on challenges. This celebration is the cornerstone of our approach. When you understand your neurodivergent profile, you're better equipped to communicate your needs effectively. Your journey towards self-acceptance, with the support of these assessments, can be transformative. It's not just about accepting yourself; it's about celebrating your neurodiversity.
