Unique conversations with Claire

Janet has had 14 years to get used to this.
She had less time to get used to Brexit and managed that with more grace.

This is not a phase. It was not a phase at fifteen. It will not become one now simply because a family gathering has run out of easier topics.

Non binary identity is documented across cultures for centuries, long before anyone needed to explain it twice at Christmas, according to a 2019 report by Human Rights Campaign.
Confusion is not evidence. It is just confusion.

If you are the person doing the explaining, again, this practice exists for exactly that kind of tired.
In English, in French, in Franglais and however it comes out.

Turns out the relationship goal is not "never fight."
It is "fight well."
Most couples I work with arrive believing that conflict itself is the problem. That a healthy relationship is one where disagreements somehow do not happen. Where two people want the same things, at the same time, in the same way, without ever having to say so.
That is not a relationship. That is a performance.
The research is fairly clear on this. Gottman's longitudinal studies across more than 40,000 couples found that it is not the presence of conflict that predicts relationship breakdown. It is the presence of contempt during conflict. Stonewalling. Criticism as character assassination rather than complaint.
What keeps couples together is not the absence of rupture. It is what happens in the rupture.
Can you say the hard thing and trust it will not end you? Can your partner hear it without disappearing into silence or fury? Can you both come back to the table, a little raw, still standing?
That is the actual goal. Not a conflict-free zone. A conflict-safe one.
And for neurodivergent and autistic couples especially, the stakes here are particular. RSD means rejection does not just sting. It lands like abandonment. Every disagreement can feel like evidence that you are, at some fundamental level, too much.
Learning to be safe in conflict is not a soft skill. It is the whole work. Link in bio.

Turned up. Got the date wrong. How led anyway.

Haworth, the moors, a q***r bookshop, cheese eaten on a bench like someone who has fully accepted her situation. Honestly one of the best Sundays I have had in years, and I did not plan a single second of it.

This is what can happen when you stop treating your ADHD brain like a malfunction and start treating it like a weather system.
You do not fight the weather. You bring the right jacket.

The same brain that got the date wrong gave me this great day.
That is the unexpected and welcome ADHD dividend nobody talks about.

Save this for the next time your brain does something inconvenient and brilliant at the same time. Or book a call to find your flow. Link in bio.

Mauvaise date. Bonne décision.
Je me suis présentée à une randonnée de groupe un jour complètement différent.
Seule.
À Haworth, dans les landes brontëennes sous un ciel qui ne savait pas encore ce qu'il voulait faire de sa journée non plus.

Résultat : du fromage mangé sur un banc, un café mérité, une librairie q***r qui sentait le papier et quelque chose qui ressemblait à de la liberté.
Un des meilleurs dimanches que j'aie eu depuis longtemps. Rien de prévu, rien de planifié, et un beau ressenti.
Ce n'est pas une histoire de résilience, où "le TDAH est une superpuissance."

Cela peut arriver quand on arrête de traiter son cerveau comme une panne et qu'on commence à le traiter comme la météo.
On ne se bat pas contre le temps. On prend la bonne veste.
Le même cerveau qui s'est trompé de jour m'a offert cette belle journée. C'est ça, le dividende TDAH.

The day I explained Pride Month in a supermarket to a woman who had never heard "d**e" used as a weapon.

She was shocked.

I was not.
That is the whole lesson, really.

La Pride, c'est dépassé.
On a l'égalité du mariage. On a la visibilité. On a même un rayon entier chez Monoprix en juin.
La France des droits de l'homme est satisfaite d'elle-même:)

Nous non.

I am an ADHD therapist.

Which means I built an entire career around understanding a brain that makes everything harder, and I still lost my keys four times before leaving the house this morning.

That is what specialist knowledge looks like: not immunity, knowledge.

Because understanding ADHD from the inside is not a coincidence. It is precisely what allows me to work with you without judgement, without shortcuts, and without suggesting you simply need a better planner.

I know what it costs. I know what actually works.
