About Neurodivergent Coaching

Compassionate Support for Authentic Growth

At Tovah Petra Coaching, we celebrate the beauty and brilliance of neurodivergent individuals. Whether you’re navigating life as an autistic adult, living with ADHD or sensory sensitivity, or raising a neurodivergent child—this space is for you.

Our approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and deeply personalized. There is no pressure to mask or “fix” yourself—your unique wiring is embraced as a strength.



What Is Neurodivergent Coaching?

Neurodivergent coaching is designed to support individuals whose brains and nervous systems work outside conventional norms, including:

Autism (self-identified or diagnosed)
ADHD
Sensory Processing Sensitivities
Highly Sensitive People (HSP)
PDA, OCD, Dyslexia, and more

Tovah’s coaching blends nervous system literacy, somatic tools, emotional attunement, and relationship-centered support to help neurodivergent clients thrive.

For Neurodivergent Adults

If you’re a neurodivergent adult, you might be:

  • Burnt out from masking or people-pleasing
  • Feeling misunderstood in relationships
  • Struggling with routines, intimacy, or overwhelm
  • Seeking a coach who truly gets you

Tovah creates a calm, connected space where you can process your experiences, reclaim your authenticity, and design a life that fits you.








For Parents & Families

Tovah also coaches parents of neurodivergent children and teens, offering:

  • Tools to better understand your child’s emotional needs
  • Somatic regulation and communication strategies
  • Coaching for co-regulation and attuned parenting
  • Space to process your own experience with care
This work is about connection, not correction.


What Is Neurodivergent Intimacy Coaching For Adults?


A personalized, somatic (body-based) coaching journey designed specifically for neurodivergent individuals and couples to explore connection, communication, self-expression, and intimacy—without shame, overwhelm, or pressure to conform.

This work honors the unique ways neurodivergent people experience touch, arousal, vulnerability, and emotional safety, offering support that is trauma-informed, consent-based, and paced with your nervous system in mind.

The goal of neurodivergent intimacy coaching is to help you:

  • Understand and integrate your emotional and erotic self
  • Navigate sensory and relational dynamics with greater ease
  • Build resilience and authentic self-worth
  • Experience intimacy that feels safe, mutual, and fulfilling
  • Explore sex and relationships in a way that aligns with your body and mind

“I will hold the space where ALL of you will be seen, acknowledged, honored, and celebrated.”
— Tovah Petra

What to Expect in Neurodivergent Coaching



In our attuned, co-regulated container, we’ll co-create a space where you can safely explore how you relate to yourself and others—without pressure to mask or perform. I’ll be gently tracking my own responses and sharing reflections that honor your pace, your nervous system, and your way of processing. Growth here is mutual, emergent, and neurodiversity-affirming.



Learning Through Felt Experience



Traditional talk-based coaching often misses the mark for neurodivergent individuals. That’s why we focus on experiential learning—where your body, emotions, and environment are all part of the conversation.
Whether you’re exploring sensory boundaries, emotional regulation, intimacy, arousal, or vulnerability, we’ll practice in real time—so you can build trust in yourself and your relational skills without shame.



Coaching That Adapts to You



No two brains are wired the same. That’s why I use a flexible, body-centered approach that supports your unique neurotype.
This includes:

  • Identifying sensory, emotional, and relational needs
  • Honoring nonverbal communication, pacing, and stimming
  • Working with trauma through somatic tools that are gentle, optional, and consent-based
  • Using the Somatica® Method to support authentic expression and emotional safety in intimacy


Whether you’re exploring solo identity or navigating partnership, we’ll focus on what actually works for you—not what’s considered “normal.”



Relational Practice in a Safe Environment



Many neurodivergent people weren’t given safe or supported opportunities to learn how to connect, repair, or co-regulate. Here, we practice those skills together—with warmth, patience, and zero judgment. You’ll receive clear modeling, soft feedback, and space to pause or redirect at any time.

Your differences are not barriers—they’re keys to deeper connection. Let’s unlock them, together.
