Inspired by lived experience

The Counselling and Therapy Hub CIC (The CATH) began with a vision to create inclusive support services. Founded by a team with diverse expertise in disability and Neurodisability, our organisation was shaped by personal experience with neurodivergence.

Finding purpose

Our journey began almost 20 years ago, when a founder's child received an Autism and ADHD diagnosis during a time of widespread misconceptions. This sparked a passion for neurodiversity advocacy and connecting people facing similar challenges.

Evolving through challenges

Founded in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, we quickly evolved to embrace our specialised purpose: creating support services that support neurodivergent people and tailoring a counselling approach that works.

Growing our services

Since then, we've expanded to include:

• Neurodiversity training for organisations
• Support designed with deep understanding of neurodivergent experiences
• Resources highlighting neurodivergent strengths

Our future vision

We're developing peer support groups, expanding our specialist therapy team, and creating body doubling services to support executive functioning.

We're building an inclusive space where neurodivergent individuals thrive.
