About the Practice
When an autistic child is anxious or exhausted from masking, parents need therapy that starts from acceptance, not correction. Autistic Actually Therapy Hove supports Brighton & Hove families with child and adolescent emotional health, parent stress, school pressure and psychological questions that need more than guesswork. The aim is to turn distress into a clearer formulation, a safer plan and language parents can use with school, home and the wider support network.

Why Work With Us?
Autistic-Led Therapy: Parents get a clearer, safer route by seeing the professional role, registration route and clinical scope before trusting someone with their child’s mental health.

Autism-Affirming Support: Support looks beneath behaviour, avoidance or shutdown so the family can understand what the child is communicating.

Practical Family Support: Support can help young people feel less alone while helping families understand what drains and protects them.
