Strengths based, neuro-affirming supports.
~ Deirdre Atkinson-Byrne Âû


At Autistic Joy, I believe that neurodiversity is a natural and valuable part of human diversity. As an autistic and ADHD woman with a PDA profile, I understand both personally and professionally the challenges that can arise when navigating a world that is not always designed with neurodivergent people in mind.
Rather than focusing on changing who you are, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, recognise your strengths, navigate challenges, and build a life that works for you. I provide strengths-based, neuro-affirming support that honours each person's unique way of thinking, feeling and experiencing the world.
Through advocacy, mentoring, education and support, I strive to create a safe and respectful space where you can explore your experiences without judgement, develop self-understanding and self-advocacy skills, and experience the joy that comes from living authentically.
