My name is Monique, I am a qualified and accredited Hypnotherapist (Full Member of the National Hypnotherapy Society HS), I also hold Practitioner level diplomas in Life Coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Dyslexia Support. I run a Coaching & Advocacy Service and I specialise in helping people with Neuro-Diverse differences like DCD/Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, AD(H)D, ASD/Asperger's Syndrome and other related differences.
Why Do I Specialise In Working With The ND Community?
The answer to this is simple... I have ND diagnoses of ASD, DCD/Dyspraxia, Dyslexia and Irlen Syndrome myself and had to learn all the topics I now teach in order to put effective strategies in place so that I could better manage my own differences. My aim is to challenge perspectives so that the next generation of NDs do not encounter the barriers and hurdles that held me back throughout my life.
I totally like how my brain works so my focus is always on helping people see the positives that come with these kind of differences!

WhAt Have I Been Up To Since My Last Blog?
I have spent the last few months organising events in the community, taking part in County based Activities to Increase ALN provision in schools in my local area, attending meetings for parents in the community, setting up internet based support groups, administering a number of Facebook groups, writing my new book, Coaching Neuro-Diverse clients and offering Relaxation tutoring lessons and creating a new CD so that people can access my relaxation class for a one off fee rather than having to pay my hourly rates to benefit from the class. In short... I have been a busy bee!
The down-side of all this activity is that my FREE TO ACCESS BLOG had to take a back seat for a while. My apologies for this guys and gals... Rest Assured I have not forgotten you!
