ADHD Wellbeing Consultations
A body-mind approach for adults with ADHD, suspected ADHD, and other forms of neurodivergence
Specialist 1:1 online consultations integrating neuroscience, nutrition, gut health, and nervous system regulation.
These consultations may help you if you live with ADHD, suspect you may be neurodivergent, or want support to understand what you are experiencing through a compassionate, evidence-informed lens.
They may also help if you are trying to make sense of how your mind, body, daily energy, stress responses, food, sleep, hormones, and gut health interact.
My 1:1 consultations are designed to help you understand how your brain, body, and daily energy patterns work, and to translate that understanding into realistic adjustments for everyday life. These sessions are mainly for adults seeking support for themselves.
This is not clinical therapy or diagnostic assessment. It is specialist guidance and support grounded in neuroscience, nutrition science, clinical experience, and lived experience. Many people use these consultations alongside work they are already doing with psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists, coaches, or other healthcare professionals.
This is also an inclusive and affirming space for LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse people. It is an approach valued by people with lived experience, as well as by professionals working in mental health, education, coaching, and wellbeing.
If you feel this support could help you, you can book a consultation here.
Who are these consultations for?
These consultations may be right for you if:
You live with ADHD or suspect ADHD may explain part of what you are experiencing.
You have been recently diagnosed and want to understand what this means for your life.
You are trying to make sense of the emotional, practical, or identity-related shifts that can appear when you begin to understand your neurotype more clearly.
You find it difficult to regulate attention, energy, rest, hunger, mood, or stress.
You have tried many strategies and feel tired of one-size-fits-all advice that does not fit your brain, body, context, or capacity.
You want to better understand how nutrition, sleep, stress, hormones, gut health, and emotional regulation may be influencing your day-to-day life.
You have read my book ADHD Body and Mind and want to bring those ideas into your real life in a way that feels practical, kind, and realistic.
I also work with:
Neurodivergent adults who do not yet have a formal diagnosis.
Professionals in health, mental health, education, coaching, or wellbeing who want to integrate this body-mind approach into their practice.
If you are looking for guidance for someone close to you
If you are a parent, partner, family member, or close friend and want to better understand how to support a neurodivergent person, I can offer focused guidance to help you make sense of what may be happening and how to support that process with more clarity and sensitivity.
These consultations do not replace specialist clinical assessment, diagnosis, or treatment. If the person you are seeking guidance for is a child or young person, the appropriate approach should involve qualified professionals who specialise in childhood and adolescence.
Where do these consultations fit?
These sessions do not replace:
psychotherapy
a clinical diagnosis
psychiatric treatment
medical care
They can complement work you may already be doing with psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists, coaches, nutrition professionals, or other healthcare providers.
My focus is on helping you understand how the following interact:
your nervous system
your daily energy
your nutrition and gut health
your sleep and recovery
stress and environment
your sensory and emotional world
your relationships and daily context
And how to create kinder, more realistic conditions for your attention, regulation, and wellbeing.
What do we work on?
Every consultation is different because your life, history, body, and context are specific to you. In our sessions, we may explore:
How your brain and body respond to stress, overload, and uncertainty.
The relationship between food, gut health, microbiota, and emotional state.
Daily energy, brain fog, tiredness, impulsivity, cravings, or emotional reactivity.
Body signals such as hunger, fullness, tension, restlessness, or shutdown.
How sleep, hormones, stress, and life transitions may be shaping how you feel.
Practical strategies to support attention, emotional regulation, and everyday functioning.
How to communicate your needs, ask for support, and build realistic adjustments in medical appointments, work, study, relationships, or family life.
How to make sense of your neurodivergence without reducing yourself to symptoms, labels, or deficits.
The aim is not to change who you are, but to help you understand how you function and create conditions that support you in daily life. My work is adapted to your goals, context, capacity, and strengths, not only to the difficulties you may be experiencing right now.
What these consultations are not
To avoid confusion:
I do not diagnose ADHD.
I do not provide clinical psychological therapy.
I do not replace a psychiatrist or a medical doctor.
I do not offer crisis support.
I do not work with magic solutions, rigid protocols, or universal plans.
My role is to help you understand your brain, body, and patterns through science, clinical experience, and lived experience, then support you in turning that understanding into realistic next steps.
What some of my clients say about our work together
-
“After my recent ADHD diagnosis, I was overwhelmed and unsure where to begin. Dr Miguel’s holistic, neuroaffirmative approach gave me both the scientific understanding and the self-compassion I needed.
Over 6 sessions, he made the complexities of my ADHD clear and actionable, helping me to emotionally process my diagnosis, understand my lived experience, and develop personalised strategies for my day-to-day life.
I am really grateful for his friendly, no-nonsense guidance. It is rare to find such a qualified professional who is so down to earth. The fact that he is also multiply neurodivergent means he really understands what you’re going through.”
-
“It is difficult to put into words the sense of care, kindness, and respect I felt in your words during our time together. Thank you so much for that. I feel seen and understood. For me, that is vital in a professional, because I usually tend to close down. I don’t know whether you fully realise how important the work you are doing is for so many of us.
After the session and follow-up, I felt supported with so much clarity and kindness. I deeply value the time you took to explain the next steps and guide me with specific options adapted to my situation.
It is clear that you do this work with love, professionalism, and a deep understanding of how many neurodivergent people experience life. For me, feeling understood in this way is a real act of care.
I am so glad I had these sessions with you. Thank you, truly.”
-
“Miguel, your book is not just a book to me. It is a mirror, a guide, and, on many occasions, a balm, an embrace.
Thank you for your generosity, for opening up, for writing, and above all for supporting me, first through your book and then in consultation.
Moving from the pages to being able to meet online has been so powerful. It felt as if you were holding my hand through my dark night of the soul.
How fortunate I am that our paths crossed, because you are now part of my story.
Thank you, and a big hug, my friend.”
Places for individual consultations and mentoring are limited, so I can offer the attention, care, and preparation this work deserves.
To make the most of our work together, you will need to come with openness, involvement, and a willingness to explore new possibilities. My role is to guide, support, and help you make sense of what is happening, but meaningful change grows from your own curiosity, commitment, and willingness to engage with the process.
If you are ready to show up for yourself with honesty and kindness, I will be alongside you as your guide and ally.
Gut-brain microbiome insight add-on
If you want to explore the gut-brain connection in more depth, I offer an optional gut microbiome test add-on as part of the consultation process.
I offer this because I have spent many years working at the intersection of microbiome science, nutrition, neuroscience, and mental health. My aim is to translate knowledge that often remains confined to laboratories, academic papers, or specialist research spaces into something clear, useful, and relevant to everyday life.
This is not about fancy diagnostics, medicalising your microbiome, or creating complex supplement protocols. It is about helping you understand relevant patterns in your gut ecology and how they may connect with food, digestion, energy, mood, stress, sleep, and attention.
This test is not required for us to work together. In fact, most people benefit from the consultations without any kind of testing. However, where appropriate, a gut microbiome test can add another layer of insight into digestion, microbial diversity, fibre fermentation, short-chain fatty acid potential, and gut-brain patterns that may relate to your physical and mental wellbeing.
As part of this add-on service, I may also use brief validated questionnaires to help map areas such as perceived stress, mood, anxiety, sleep, digestive symptoms, and day-to-day wellbeing. I have used this type of measure throughout my research and clinical work to understand patterns more clearly, not to diagnose or label you.
I do not use microbiome testing to diagnose conditions or create rigid supplement protocols. My role is to help you understand the most relevant findings in plain English and translate them into realistic food, lifestyle, and nervous system support.
Professional interpretation fee: £225. The microbiome test itself is charged separately.
Please note that this add-on is only available as part of an ongoing consultation process, not as a standalone test interpretation service. If you are interested, we can discuss whether it feels appropriate and useful during your initial enquiry call.

How booking works
Before booking a full consultation, we begin with a brief initial enquiry call, usually around 15 minutes long. This gives us a chance to understand what has brought you here, what kind of support you are looking for, and whether my way of working is a good fit for your needs.
This call is not a consultation, and we will not go into detailed advice at this stage. It is simply a space to clarify expectations, answer practical questions, and make sure that the support I offer is appropriate for you.
If we both feel that working together makes sense, we can then arrange your first consultation or a block of three sessions. You’ll receive an email with all details, including a link to a pre-consultation questionnaire and to a page where you can pay for your sessions securely using any major debit or credit cards.
All consultations take place online and are held securely via Zoom.
Do you have any examples of how working with you might look like?
I prefer to listen to you and respond to your needs rather than use fixed protocols. If you would like to see how a 3-session consultation process might unfold, click the button below.
Please bear in mind that our work together will be adapted to your current stage of life, your history, and your present capacity, but hopefully the examples below will help you understand what the process may look like for you.

A body and mind approach valued by other professionals
“Miguel brings together thorough, evidence-based guidance and a warm, enthusiastic approach.
His expertise has made a real difference for individuals facing neurodivergence alongside complex mental health challenges, helping our clients feel supported, engaged, and empowered on their recovery journeys.”
Dr Vince Gradillas, Consultant Psychiatrist & CEO at Claimont Health
How the process is usually organised
Most people I work with begin with a block of three consultations.
Session 1
Understanding what is happening and reducing the noise
Our first consultation usually focuses on understanding your current situation with greater clarity and less judgement.
In this session, we may explore:
Your personal story and the patterns of effort, adaptation, or masking that may have brought you here.
What has changed recently in your life, body, energy, or sense of self.
How factors such as sustained stress, hormonal changes, sleep, nutrition, or life context may be influencing how you feel.
The difference between personal traits, stress responses, and possible neurodivergent patterns.
How to put words to what you are experiencing through a body-based and neurobiological lens.
This first consultation is not about deciding everything or fixing anything. It is about organising your story, lowering self-blame, and understanding why things may feel the way they do now.
By the end of this session, people often leave with:
More understanding and less guilt.
An initial map of what may be going on.
A sense that what they are experiencing makes sense.
Session 2
Body, nervous system, and daily life
The second consultation usually brings the work closer to the body and everyday life.
Here, we explore how you are functioning now, not how you think you “should” be functioning.
In this second session, we might explore:
How your nervous system is operating most of the time.
Your daily energy, highs and lows, and patterns of overload.
Hunger, fullness, digestion, cravings, tiredness, or brain fog, without judgement.
Which strategies used to help and which may now be costing you too much.
Which body signals may be asking for attention.
In this session, we may introduce practical suggestions, always adapted to your real life:
Simple nutritional adjustments to support energy and regulation.
Ideas for rhythm and daily structure that do not add more pressure.
Gentle movement and breathing as regulation tools, not obligations.
Small possible changes rather than radical transformations.
By the end of this session, you’ll likely leave with:
More body awareness.
Less internal struggle.
A few concrete acts of care that feel possible now.
Session 3
Integrating, prioritising, and supporting what comes next
Our third consultation usually helps integrate what we have explored and look ahead with better perspective.
In this session, we might explore:
What your discoveries about your body, mind, or way of functioning mean for you.
Any fears, doubts, grief, or relief that may be appearing.
How to support external processes, such as medical assessments, life changes, or important decisions.
Which aspects are structural and which may be more flexible or modifiable.
Which forms of support help you and which ones overwhelm you.
How to express your needs more clearly and advocate for what helps, without forcing yourself to fit expectations that do not support you.
This may be our last session, or you may decide to continue to work with me. In any event, the aim isn’t to close everything neatly but to help you hold uncertainty with more clarity and less fear.
By the end of this session, you’re likely to have developed:
More capacity to make decisions without rushing.
A personal framework for care and priorities.
A sense that you are not alone or broken in the process.
After this initial block, we can decide together whether it makes sense to continue working at your pace. I will always be clear and honest with you about whether I think further support would be useful, or whether you’ve already done enough to allow you to continue on your own for now.
Optional gut-brain microbiome insight add-on
In some cases, you may want to explore the gut-brain connection in more depth. If it feels relevant, we can discuss during the initial enquiry call whether a gut microbiome test might add useful insight to your consultation process.
If we decide to include this add-on, the test is completed at home and reviewed in the context of your wider story, not in isolation. I would look at the most relevant patterns, such as microbial diversity, digestion, fibre fermentation, short-chain fatty acid potential, and gut-brain signals that may relate to energy, mood, stress, sleep, and attention. We may also use brief validated questionnaires to help map areas such as perceived stress, mood, sleep, digestion, and day-to-day wellbeing.
The aim is not to diagnose, medicalise your microbiome, or create a rigid protocol. It is to translate complex information into clear, realistic food, lifestyle, and nervous system support that fits your body, your context, and your current capacity.
