Sarah Walsh
MSc in Psychology
About Sarah
Sarah thrives on helping others to overcome problems so they can succeed, particularly neurodivergent individuals and those with chronic health issues, as she has personal experience in both these areas. She decided to train as a coach after having coaching herself, which helped her to achieve things she’d thought were impossible. Her coaching style is firmly embedded in an evidence-based approach (she gives a serious side-eye to “positive vibes only” messages) as well as a lot of humour.
Sarah has a rich and varied career history, including work across the Tech, Healthcare, and Education sectors. Having had a “later in life” diagnosis of ADHD herself, she is
particularly keen to support recently diagnosed adults and those exploring the possibility of being neurodivergent.

Emma Wee
About Emma
Emma champions the resilience and self-reliance that understanding one’s own neurodiversity can bring an individual, and has seen many clients find a new sense of purpose by being able to embrace fully who they are, rather than being defined by a label. Her own neurodiversity has allowed her to thrive on different spheres because of the way her brain works, not in spite of it.
She is also keen to support women who are peri and post menopausal in giving them strategies and a space to be heard at a time of both physical and mental upheaval.
When Emma is coaching at her best…..She is like a spaghetti sorting device; able to untangle the different strands of clients’ conditions , circumstances and personality traits to unknot problems and streamline their working process and emotional resilience.
