Alchemy with Mafy

ADHD & AuDHD coaching for when understanding yourself isn't enough.

You can’t always think your way through a feeling you need to sit with.Maybe you’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, and understand yourself better than ever, and it still hasn’t made life feel easier. Maybe you’re burnt out, masking your way through work, or questioning everything since finding out how your brain works.You’re not broken. You don’t need another list of things you “should” be doing.You need a space where every part of you is welcome.

I’m Mafy. I have a background in Psychology, Counselling & Psychotherapy, and I have AuDHD myself.I work 1:1 with adults who want to understand themselves on a deeper level and figure out what actually works for their brain.I will never give you another list of things you “should” be doing.But I will help you understand why you feel the way you do, in the first place.

THIS MIGHT BE FOR YOU IF...

• You do your job well, then have nothing left for the rest of your life.
• You keep trying to understand yourself but find yourself running into the same patterns.
• Your evenings disappear into scrolling, and it doesn’t feel like rest.
• You’re navigating burnout, masking, identity or what comes next since finding out how your brain works.
• You feel like an outsider at work or in social situations, performing a version of yourself all day.
• You want somewhere to explore what’s really going on without being reduced to a diagnosis, a symptom, or a problem to fix.You don’t have to arrive with everything figured out. You can just bring what’s happening right now.
There is no need for an official diagnosis to work with me. Whether you’re recently diagnosed, waiting for an assessment, or still wondering, you’re welcome here.

HOW I WORK

Fuck toxic positivity.You’re not going to hear me tell you to “just think positive”, “stop overthinking”, or “just push through it.” If it were that easy, you would’ve already done it.Life is messy. People are complicated. Change isn’t linear.
And sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop hiding the parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, questioning your identity, or working out what comes next, this is a space where all of you is welcome.A space to understand yourself a little more deeply, at your pace.That’s where real Alchemy begins.

ABOUT ME

I know what it’s like to feel like an outsider.I was diagnosed with ADHD at 22 and autism at 27, rebuilt my life more than once, and spent years trying to understand why I experienced the world so differently.That’s what led me to study psychology and counselling, and to explore other ways of understanding myself along the way.Now I help other people make sense of how their own brains work, at their own pace.Along the way I found that psychology and spirituality weren’t as separate as I’d thought. If that’s useful to you, we can explore it together.

FAQ‣ What happens in a session?
We start with what’s going on for you right now. Together we work out what’s getting in the way, try practical strategies, and adapt them to how your brain works.‣ What happens after I enquire?
I reply by email within 48 hours with the next steps and a payment link. Once that’s sorted, we find a time that works for you. Sessions are online.‣ What if I need to reschedule?
Let me know at least 24 hours before if you can. If you can’t, just tell me as soon as you’re able and we’ll find another time. I know energy and executive function don’t always cooperate, and I need that flexibility too.‣ Is this therapy?
No. This is coaching, not therapy or medical care. My background in psychology and counselling shapes how I work, but I’m not a psychologist or doctor. If you need mental health support, please speak to your GP or a qualified therapist.

ACCESS TO WORK
(England, Scotland and Wales)‣ What is Access to Work?
Access to Work is a government-funded scheme that gives practical and financial support to people with a disability, a health condition or a mental health condition, so they can start or stay in work. It’s available whether you’re employed or self-employed, and it can fund things like specialist equipment, travel support, support workers and coaching. Every application is looked at individually, based on what you need.You don’t need a formal diagnosis to apply.‣ Can it fund ADHD or AuDHD coaching?
It can. Support for ADHD and AuDHD often includes coaching or coping strategy sessions, and sometimes equipment like noise-cancelling headphones or assistive software. It’s worth being clear and specific in your application about how your ADHD or AuDHD affects you at work.‣ How do I apply?
First, check you’re eligible on Gov.uk
Then fill in the application, or ask someone you trust to help you with it. You’ll usually need your National Insurance number, your workplace details and a contact at work. If you’re self-employed, you’ll need your UTR number instead.

‣ Do you work with Access to Work clients?
Yes. Once you’ve applied, you’re welcome to email me to see if we’re a good fit. If we are, I can give you a quote to send to your case manager. Once your funding is approved, we’ll get you set up properly, whether you’re employed or self-employed.For questions about your application or eligibility, please contact Access to Work directly.
