Workplaces aren't set up for you as an autistic person.
Let's get your career sorted,
because you deserve to have
energy & capacity for the things that matter.
It's simple.
Workplaces just aren't set up for you as an autistic person. You work hard navigating a workplace set up for neurotypicals, and spend your evenings recovering.
You're not seeing the success you want.
You don't have energy for the things you love.
You're tired.
It doesn't have to be like this.
You deserve a brilliant career AND you deserve true free time.
Hi, I'm Jess :)
I am a late-diagnosed autistic with a longstanding fascination with all things career development. I have seven years' experience in HR, recruitment, and development roles across public and private sectors. I have qualifications in coaching, and Understanding Autism. Put all of this together, and I'm well placed to support you.
If you're here, you're probably neurodivergent and struggling with something at work; whether it's navigating relationships and communication, people pleasing, or knowing that there must be a job out there that's better suited to your needs, I'm here to help.
You don't need a diagnosis to work with me - I work with people who are autistic-questioning, self-diagnosed, medically confirmed as autistic, and autistic people with co-occurring conditions like ADHD and dyslexia.
From coping strategies to improve your current job, to strategically designing and building your long-term career, get in touch to see how we can work together.
Why work with an autistic coach?
- we can co-create a judgement-free coaching experience which works for you and accommodates your needs
- it's easier to understand and be understood by fellow autistic people because of the 'double empathy' problem and shared lived experiences
- it's easier to unmask in front of other autistic people, so all of your cognitive energy can go towards thinking
Together, these important factors mean you can focus on the reason you came to coaching, rather than things like counting how many seconds you've made eye contact for.
Client Testimonials
I had given up on finding any meaningful job that would pay me well and bring me a sense of accomplishment
Now, I feel way more confident applying for jobs and dealing with interviews. And even before the coaching sessions wrapped up, I’d already landed a job in the field I wanted!

AI Training Math Expert
I found I had clarity on my next steps, I had overcome anything I was allowing to get in my way and I was taking action to drive my business forward.

Jess is great at asking questions which make you reflect on the issue in a different way; she built my confidence around a range of issues such as decision-making, dislike of conflict and changing career direction. I would highly recommend Jess as a professional coach.
