Neurodiversity coaching in Cheltenham, & online across the UK
Chiara Richards
Founder of Reframe neurodiversity
When you understand how your mind works, everything begins to shift.
Coaching and training that helps neurodivergent individuals and workplaces move from overwhelm and self-doubt to clarity, confidence and meaningful change.
For many of the people we work with, life has involved trying to adapt to systems that were never designed with their mind in mind.
You might have been told to try harder.
To be more organised.
To push through.
But over time, that effort can become exhausting.
It can lead to self-doubt, frustration, and the feeling that something just isn’t working, even when you know you’re capable of more.
What we’ve learned, through both lived experience and my work, is this:
Often the challenge isn’t the person.
It’s the environment around them.
And when that begins to change, things start to shift.
Clarity grows.
Confidence returns.
New possibilities open up.
What we do
We support individuals, families and organisations to better understand neurodivergent thinking and create ways of working that actually fit.
For Individuals
Understand how your mind works and build strategies that support your energy, focus and confidence in everyday life.
For Workplaces
Support neurodivergent employees to thrive, not just cope, through coaching that improves clarity, communication and wellbeing.
For Organisations
Move beyond awareness into meaningful change with training that helps teams understand, support and work effectively with different minds.
A different way of thinking
At the heart of my work is a simple idea:
People thrive when they are understood, supported and able to work with their brain, rather than constantly trying to work against it.
No two people experience the world in the same way.
So instead of trying to fit people into fixed systems, we explore:
-
how your mind processes information
-
how your energy and attention work
-
what environments help you feel clear and capable
From there, we build practical strategies that work in real life.
Not generic advice.
Not one-size-fits-all solutions.
But approaches designed around you.
What clients often say
“This is the first time I’ve felt understood.”
“I finally have strategies that actually work for me.”
“I feel more confident in how I approach things now.”
“Chiara has a rare talent for making you feel truly seen and understood. Working with her gave me clarity and a new sense of confidence.” — Anamaria, Berlin
For many people, coaching becomes a space where they can think clearly, without judgement or pressure to be different.
Why this work matters
In coaching, leadership, parenting and workplaces, something important often gets missed.
We believe what we feel much more than what we hear.
If someone feels judged, rushed or misunderstood, even the best strategies struggle to land.
But when people feel safe, respected and genuinely understood, change happens naturally.
That’s what this work is about.
Creating the conditions where insight, confidence and meaningful change can emerge.
“Coaching with Chiara helped me step back, find balance, and create real clarity. I feel calmer, more organised, and back in control.”— Helen, Cheltenham
For Organisations
Many workplace challenges linked to neurodiversity are not about ability.
They come from environments that assume everyone thinks, communicates and organises themselves in the same way.
When organisations begin to understand and adapt, something powerful happens:
People feel more comfortable being themselves.
Communication improves.
Teams become more effective.
Retention and wellbeing increase.
Inclusive workplaces are not only more supportive.
They are often more creative, thoughtful and successful.
Ready to find out more?
One of the most powerful moments in this work is when someone begins to see themselves differently.
When understanding replaces self-doubt.
When strengths become clearer.
When things start to feel possible again.
If that’s something you’re looking for, the best place to start is a conversation.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out.
