Neurokindred ~ Linda Tuxford-Adams
What makes you an ND Affirming Service Provider
Neurokindred is an Autistic-led non-profit that provides online counselling and peer support for late-identified Autistic adults. We are committed to providing quality, neuro-affirming, trauma-sensitive, gender-affirming, affordable and accessible mental health and wellbeing support. All our services are 100% Autistic-led and lived experience educators inform our practice. Therapy and support are focused on working with our neurology, nurturing Autistic wellbeing and fostering connection to neurokin.
Our founder and head counsellor, Linda Tuxford-Adams, is a late-identified AuDHDer with C-PTSD and conducts both individual and text-based counselling sessions. She is a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor and educator and works primarily with late-identified Autistic adults perceived female at birth with complex trauma. In all sessions the therapeutic relationship is prioritised and modalities are adapted to support neurodivergent neurology and individual needs. Specific approaches she draws from include parts work, narrative therapy, trauma coaching & psychoeducation, sensori-motor practice, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, therapeutic art, bibliotherapy, and scriptotherapy. We offer a free 'Toe in the Water' appointment and have sliding scale appointments available.
The Neurokindred Affiliates page and directory also provide our community with alternate options for Autistic neuro-affirming mental health and wellbeing practitioners who have been screened. We believe in the best relational fit being the most conducive to therapeutic effectiveness so encourage people to explore a range of options to find what will work best for them. All offer a free consult (see affiliates page for details). We also offer free -low cost Autistic-led peer support groups that provide opportunities to connect with neurokin-which is healing in itself.
