About Lex

Lex only found out about her AuDHD (Autism & ADHD) in her mid 30s, following what was misdiagnosed as ‘a nervous breakdown’.

Having lived all her life being told she was purely suffering with Depression with Anxiety – it never rang true for Lex and the treatments were never effective. Lex now sees she indulged in several self-medicating/stimulating behaviours to manage her AuDHD symptoms without even realising. Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria manifested in overachieving and to the outside world, she appeared a successful person, however inside she felt far from it. Despite this, Lex carved out a very successful career in Social Care and Housing. She has managed regional services both in senior and front line roles. Due to her clarity, energy and passion, Lex was able to naturally motivate previously low-performing into high-achieving teams as well as ensuring best practice models for service delivery and service user involvement. Following her own AuDHD diagnosis, Lex has been on an intense learning and self-growth journey and now sees ADHD, AuDHD & Autism as a mixture of Superpower and Kryptonite, with gifts no one could imagine, but with the sweets comes the sours, and this has led to Lex experiencing the difficulties and challenges AuDHD brings. It was a huge relief to realise this was the reason but it was coupled with a sense of sadness it had not been recognised sooner. Lex is passionate about working with Adults with ADHD, AuDHD & Autism to understand their own superpowers and to manage the Kryptonite as well as truly understand themselves, their dreams, wants, desires and feel authentically you. It has become her life’s ambition to raise awareness and celebrate Neurodiversity. Having experienced discrimination in the workplace because of her AuDHD, Lex works tirelessly to ensure she is able to provide the most accurate legal and procedural support and guidance to clients she works with. Lex now also offers Neurodiversity Training for employers to understand and get the very best from their staff. Lex is passionate about helping clients with employment law and discrimination, SEN law, Family Law, corporate social responsibility, training, development and public speaking.
