My Blog

Sex and intimacy are rarely discussed openly within neurodivergent experience, yet shame, exploitation and difficulty surface again and again in clinic. This piece names what is often unspoken, explores what the evidence does and does not tell us, and holds firmly that understanding is never the same as excusing.

Trauma surfaces in history-taking and becomes the centre of the formulation. The question of underlying neurodivergence does not get asked, or it gets parked, or it surfaces years later in another service. A note to fellow clinicians on the cost of incomplete formulations, particularly for women.

I am always seeking ways to share and reflect my learning and experience, so why not a blog...?
