The Hidden Cost of “Standard” Adjustments
Stop the Burnout-Exit Cycle with Clinical Neuro-Vocational Audits.
The Problem:
Most organisations treat neurodiversity as a compliance checkbox. When a top-performing specialist starts to struggle, the standard response is “generic” advice or, eventually, a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP).
By the time a specialist resigns, it has already cost the business an average of £19,000 in replacement costs, lost expertise, and cultural friction.
The Solution: Precision, Not Guesswork.
I am an HCPC-registered Occupational Therapist specialising in high-performance neuro-vocational health. I don’t just suggest “taking more breaks.” I use standardised clinical tools (D-REF, Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, and The Work Environment Impact Scale) to map the “why” behind workplace performance drops.
I use an occupational performance coaching method to work one on one with employees to build skills and routines in using adjustments to improve their performance and wellbeing at work.
