Mission

To build a support system that recognizes the differences and strengths of each client and to work with them so they can become the best version of themselves

Values

  • Authenticity: You can be only yourself and show up every day
  • Uncompromising integrity: Mean what you do and do what you say. No exceptions
  • Courage over comfort: Being brave requires walking through vulnerability
  • Inclusion:  Social inclusions = acceptance. Tolerance or awareness is insufficient
  • Advocacy in Leadership: Lead through supporting others and using your voice for change

Neurodivergent-led

Business owner, Sarah Skeard, is an advocate for emergent neurodivergents. With extensive training and education, more than 11 years experience, and being neurodivergent herself, she understands her clients and empowers them to succeed.

I had been speaking with a student when I noticed another student just starring, listening and smiling at us.  The next day I was helping the student that starred. I will never forget when he looked up at me and said,

“I have ADHD too, but that doesn't mean I can't do it".”

He went on to complete academic math without a single mark below an 80%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does ENCC provide counselling services?

ENCC offers Neurodiversity Coaching.  We do not provide counselling.  We are complementary to, not a replacement for, psychological services.

What is Neurodiversity Coaching?

Neurodiversity coaching is the process of a trained professional working with a neurodivergent person to help them understand their differences and strengths and discover the specific tools that are best suited to help the person thrive, not just survive. Both coach and client are inextricable in the process as, together, they develop strategies for growth and success.

Do I Need a Medical Diagnosis?

No diagnosis or referral is necessary for coaching sessions with ENCC. Anybody can arrange a session with me.

We work with YOU not a diagnosis.

Do You Follow a Specific Program?

Our approach and coaching content is designed with you, for you.  Whether you need to learn math, design personalised, neurodivergent friendly strategies to help you get things done in the workplace or at home, completely re-imagine your career, or anything in between, we can work together in a timeframe to suit you.

How Long Will It Take?

The time required the help you make a meaningful difference in your daily life depends on your needs and your goals. Every client is unique and our focus is on YOU. It isn’t about a quick fix but about long lasting changes. We’ll start with the basics to understand you better. Then, the coaching begins. Many coaching agreements will last for 3-6 months. You will determine when you are ready to fly on your own and whether or not you want more time.

How Much Will It Cost

With the exception of the initial consultation, each coaching session is an hour long. The hourly cost will be negotiated depending on your needs.  The number of sessions you will need depends on you.  Payment is due in advance through EMT. Click HERE to find out more about our pricing.
