About

I am Rhi The ND OT and I bring you Your ND OT, an online Occupational Therapy service focussed on supporting late diagnosed mums and birthing people with ADHD and AuDHD.

I am passionately neuro affirming and queer affirming, and always work to create a culturally safe space. As a gay woman who migrated to Melbourne from Wales and was diagnosed with ADHD after having two children myself, being a you-as-you-are-affirming-practitioner feels very important!

Whilst I usually work with mums and birthing people through the overwhelm that often comes from the complexities of parenting with Au/DHD, I am honoured to also offer my practice to any neuro queer adolescents and adults who are looking for a safe and affirming practitioner.

As Your ND OT I help you find ways of doing things that actually work for you.
