How to Work With Me
Parent Your Autistic/ADHD Child with Confidence — No Sacrificing Your Career, Family, or Wellbeing
Thriving Together – A Supportive 1:1 Parenting Journey for Mums of Autistic/ADHD Kids (0-11, diagnosis or not) — From Daily Stress and Second-Guessing to Calm, Confident Parenting
Hi, I’m Jo, and I see you – the late nights, the juggling act, the guilt, and the fierce love. You’re doing so much — and you don’t have to do it alone. When autism was first mentioned, it blew all my family and career expectations out of the water, and that’s when I started working with my own coach.
I’m a Confidence in Parenting Coach for Mums of Autistic/ADHD Kids, and mum to my bright, autistic son with ADHD. I support you to parent with confidence in a way that works for your wonderfully unique child.
I know the heartbreak of watching your child struggle. The confusion of wondering “Is it me?”, and the mental load and isolation of holding everything together when you’re crumbling inside.
I help fellow mums rediscover calm, connection, and control, without sacrificing themselves.
I’ve been there and I’ve created a better way forward –
🌿My 3-Step Thriving Together Method
1. Decode & Connect – We uncover the triggers behind your child’s behaviour, whether it presents as meltdowns, anxiety, aggression, or school/nursery avoidance. I work with you to create personalised, compassionate strategies to meet their unique needs.
2. Get Everyone on Board – We reset communication using tailored scripts and strategies with your partner, siblings, and school. No more doubting yourself when you parent and advocate for your child. I support you in reconnecting with your partner and other children so no one feels invisible.
3. Reclaim Your Life – Parenting doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your career or identity. I’ll help you with strategies to balance parenting, work, and wellbeing so you feel in control. Reclaim your energy, so you feel focused at work, present at home, and enjoy parenting.
Parenting this way may look different, but it works, and your family and career will thrive.
“I took Jo on holiday with me via my mobile! I’m figuring my daughter out; she’s calmer and can more easily communicate her needs. I had quality time with each of my kids. My husband and I held hands and reflected on her progress. She went to school with a smile.”
– Karen, Mum of an Autistic/ADHD daughter.

Testimonials
Olivia – As a mum of an autistic child life is often brutal, hard, loud & exhausting. As a mum of three kids sometimes it’s hard to enjoy the parenting part when the simply existing part is so overwhelming. Today I waved my three beautiful babies off to school together for the first time. The smiles on their faces said it all and I am so proud of them. Thank you Jo, for all the inspiration & encouragement. You’ve helped us so much, you’re a wonder!
Bhumika – I feel so positive and motivated after speaking to you! I did what you suggested and visualised seeing my son already at the special school we wanted, being supported. It worked! A few weeks later I was notified by his Council caseworker that he’d got in and your reassurance along the way allowed me to let go of any doubts. I felt like I was heard, that I had a voice and that myself and my child mattered and we were not just numbers.
Anna – You listened carefully to me Jo and you helped me to start to take new perspectives on my thoughts and how I cope with challenges. Your use of metaphors helped me greatly to visualise what you were explaining and using them has helped me feel more centred.
Sam – ‘You are a wonderful coach Jo so easy for people to talk to!’
Kaya – ‘I felt a bit nervous before our first session, but it was great to have time just for me and I really enjoyed it. You made me feel very relaxed. It was so good to talk to someone who really listened and understood me. I was very surprised by the realisations that I had, particularly that I worry what other people think and don’t always feel appreciated. I was surprised that I had a lot of issues that I was worrying about. The positive suggestions that you gave me to work on were really helpful. I have dreamed of setting up my own project to help other people for a long time but with everything going on I just kept saying ‘I’ll do it one day’. With your encouragement and reassurance, I started my project for myself and I’m getting wonderful feedback and appreciation from the people that I’m helping. I also took action on one of the suggestions that we came up with to challenge the ‘system’ and improve the situation for my child, I now feel more confident that he will be happier in the future. It was reassuring to know I could talk to you if I had any worries, I had a family issue come up and no one to ask about it so it was valuable to talk someone who was neutral, non-judgemental and could draw out of me what the real issues were. The sessions made me feel really happy, thank you!’
Rachel – ‘you’re a good listener Jo and I felt that you understood me, my child was finding the feeling of some clothing so irritating that it was causing her to have a meltdown. I hadn’t heard of a therapy brush before and she liked the technique you suggested. We are now talking to an Occupational Therapist (OT) and striving to get more support.’ (I would suggest talking to an OT about using a therapy brush as what works for one child but may not work for another).
