Hi, I’m Abby, a neurodivergent wellbeing specialist and the founder of Wellbeing Whizz. As an autistic adult and parent of two neurodivergent children, I’ve faced my share of challenges navigating life, from understanding my own needs to advocating for the adjustments that make environments more inclusive. But these challenges have also been the driving force behind what I do today.
When I received my autism diagnosis, I felt both relieved and overwhelmed. The relief came from finally understanding why life had always felt a little harder to manage in certain ways. The overwhelm stemmed from not knowing where to turn next.
I needed a service that truly understood me—not just as a diagnosis on paper, but as a person with unique needs, strengths, and experiences. Unfortunately, I didn’t find that kind of support.
This experience sparked an idea: why not create the service I would have wanted back then? That’s how Wellbeing Whizz was born. Today, I provide 1-2-1 support for neurodivergent individuals, helping them navigate their unique challenges and thrive in their own lives.
But my mission doesn’t stop there. I also work with groups and organizations, delivering training on how to build neuro-inclusive environments. This includes making reasonable adjustments that allow neurodivergent people to feel valued and supported in workplaces and beyond.
My professional background has played a huge role in shaping the way I approach this work. I’ve spent years in health and social care, first working as a coach for the NHS 111 service and later as a support worker and project lead for a homeless charity, supporting vulnerable women.
I then worked as a well-being specialist for a national company, supporting business owners in managing their mental health and wellbeing.
During that time, I noticed a recurring theme: many of the people I worked with were either diagnosed autistic or ADHD or suspected they might be. I loved helping them find solutions and strategies for their unique neurotype.
These experiences confirmed something I already felt deeply—that neurodivergent individuals often face challenges in environments that don’t fully understand or accommodate them. Supporting those clients strengthened my coaching skills and ignited my passion for creating neuro inclusive spaces.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is the personal growth it’s brought me. Supporting my clients has taught me so much—not just about coaching and wellbeing, but about myself.
Every interaction, challenge, and solution we uncover together helps me grow as a professional and a person. I’m constantly learning, whether it’s through the stories my clients share or the connections I make with others working in this space.
For me, this work is about more than just building a business. It’s about creating a world where neurodivergent people don’t have to struggle to find their place. Whether I’m helping an individual build confidence or guiding an organization toward greater inclusion, I’m driven by the hope that we can all work together to build spaces where everyone feels they belong.
If you’re a neurodivergent person looking for support or an employer interested in learning how to make your workplace more inclusive, let’s connect. T
Together, we can create an environment where neurodivergent individuals don’t just survive—they thrive.
