Ms Yuki Mei (She/they)Counsellor

Hi, I am Yuki. I am a neurodivergent & queer counsellor who is committed to providing a safe & nonjudgmental (shame-free) space for all genders, identities, neurotypes, and bodies. I collaborate with clients to explore their unique inner experiences being identified as neurodivergent; LGBTQIA+; CALD and more. I work from a non-pathologising stance, meaning that I will not see clients solely as their labels and/or diagnoses, rather, each person is their own unique being and we co-design strategies that work for the particular individual/situation. My special interests are working with late/adult-diagnosed female neurodivergent individuals, people who'd like support in navigating mental health systems, people who feel like an outsider or lack a sense of belonging, people who feel marginalised due to their identity (identities), and people who struggle with complex mental health needs. There are 5 core principles embedded in all modalities I list for my practice: person-centred, strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and trauma-informed.
