Neurodivergent therapists supporting neurodivergent clients.

Purpose

To empower neurodivergent individuals, their families, and the people who support them through neuroaffirming, evidence-informed therapy that creates meaningful and lasting change.

Direction

To shape a future where neurodivergent people no longer need to mask, fit in, or justify their differences in order to access opportunities, belonging, and success.

Our Values

Because we know that feeling understood can make all the difference.

Neuroaffirming

We recognise neurodiversity as a natural part of human variation. We focus on understanding and supporting individual differences rather than changing who someone is.

Collaboration

The people we support are experts in their own experiences. We work alongside individuals, families, schools, and organisations to create meaningful change together.

Testimonials

Trusted by Individuals, Families, Schools and Organisations

Real stories from individuals and families we’ve supported.

Highly recommend the Speech and Language Therapy provided by Maddi at Onyx. Steady progress has been made working with my 15 year old son, helping him to develop basic communication skills and has produced some amazing results. Maddi combines SaLT sessions both at home and school to provide continuity of learning which has proven to maximise outcomes, thank you Maddi!

Maddi is one of the best speech therapists that I have had the pleasure of working with. She is so knowledgeable and has built really lovely and respectful relationships with all of the children. Maddi’s neuro affirmative approach is really evident in her practice and it has been wonderful to see the progress that the children have made with her as a result. She is always willing to take the time to share her experience with the staff who also work alongside the children which ensures maximum impact. The children (and staff) are very lucky to have worked with her!

Working with Maddi has had a positive impact on both students and staff, enhancing the communication skills and supporting the social and academic success of our pupils. We look forward to seeing her every week and the children thoroughly enjoy spending time with her. Maddie is fun, knowledgeable and engaging and genuinely cares about our children and their development.

I loved the activities with Maddi she is so kind and I had a lot of fun with her, she is so just kind respectful and caring to everyone.

The report was excellent and captured our daughter perfectly. We were amazed by how quickly she built a trusting relationship with Justine. Within a short space of time, our daughter was engaging in activities she had previously refused, which speaks volumes about Justine's ability to connect, understand and support her in a way that felt safe and comfortable.

Justine has been working with my daughter for over a year now and I can honestly say she has been fantastic. She has built a strong, trusting relationship with her, which hasn’t always been easy for my daughter to do with professionals in the past. Her approach is genuinely person-centred. Because my daughter is older, Justine has encouraged her to have real input into directing her own therapy, which has given her a sense of ownership, confidence, and independence.They’ve worked on meaningful, practical areas such as planning for life after education, exploring routes into employment, and accessing work experience, and the support has always felt tailored rather than generic.

As a parent, navigating EHCPs and support systems can be extremely stressful, but working with Justine has made that feel lighter. I trust her completely. She is calm, thoughtful, and grounding in her communication, and has a way of making both young people and parents feel safe, heard, and supported. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Justine to other families.
