Support for individuals and families
Joy Diving Australia are neurodivergent consultants supporting individuals & families. We specialise in wellbeing, health & nervous system regulation.
At Joy Diving Australia, we approach your care with a lived experience of neurodivergent brains.
Led by neurodivergent consultant, public speaker and previous mental health advocate Sarah Eagle, the team at Joy Diving Australia know that neurodivergent brains require more than just support – it’s a mixed bag of compassion, education, normalising, self-literacy, saying goodbye to stigma, and so much more – which takes time.
Let’s break the cycle and help you get to where you want to be.
Tell us – is this you?
- Confused about your neurodivergent brain – where do you even start?
- All of these feelings of distress, overwhelm, avoidance, and chaos are coming to the forefront and it’s becoming a battle
- You’re having challenges with sensory processing
- You’re finding it hard to establish a consistent daily routine
- You feel like you’re working really hard, but never really getting anywhere
- You’re struggling in relationships and having challenges financially
- You’re having trouble sticking to things
- You want to be able to better regulate your health and emotions
- You may have seen a psychologist, but you want to access someone who has lived experience understanding you and neurodivergence
- You’re a smart, creative entrepreneur, CEO or executive manager that is ready to extrapolate your brain
Trust us – we get it.
It’s so important to be heard, understood and validated on the quest to understanding your own, unique brain.
Led by a compassionate, kind and educational neurodivergent consultant, Joy Diving Australia offers individuals and families access to personalised education, tips, strategies in a non-judgemental, empowering and supportive environment surrounded by others with lived experiences of neurodivergence.
How does it work?
Think of it this way – at Joy Diving Australia, our role is like a tour guide.
We take you by the hand and go on a stroll through your brain.
Bridging knowledge, education, career and lived experience, we create a customised approach to learning about your neurodivergence, what works for you, and what might not work. This is developed through curious observations – rather than trying to ‘solve a problem’, we are learning how to make the most of your magnificent mind collaboratively.
This is self-literacy of one’s own brain – in full respect of your inner wisdom and experiences.
If you are diagnosed with neurodivergence later in life, it may be normal for you to believe that your internal experiences are wrong.
At Joy Diving Australia, we’re here to help you build a strong rapport with your inner world, and connect you to your own personal experiences without shame, backed by education, tools and communication that makes gently exploring your new diagnosis a lot clearer.
While we believe there is a place for the medical model, Joy Diving Australia works with your brain, not your diagnosis.

Case studies
Female, late 40s
This client arrived in burnout thinking she may have ADHD. Suffering from overwhelm, low confidence and suicidal ideation, she was struggling with all of the different roles in her life. Her goals were to improve her mental health, create sustainable income, and to manage her business, life, health and relationships better.
The result:
We identified the client had numerous significant health conditions that were left untreated. By supporting her to find a new GP and getting her back on medications, we explored a potential ADHD diagnosis and the client with indeed diagnosed with ADHD. From here, the clients moods significantly improved, with the support of life affirming medications and lifestyle changes that also saw her double her income in the first month of working together.
Female, mature
Joy Diving Australia offered support to a mature mother regarding her adult daughter. The daughter had been in a psychiatric hospital once a year for many years, which was privately funded. The family was looking for extra guidance and support on their next steps.
The result:
At the end of the consult, the mother contacted Joy Diving Australia founder Sarah saying, “I learned more in that hour and a half with you than we have ever learned about our daughter’s brain. You have saved us $60k of private hospital fees.”
Female, early 20s
This female student was diagnosed later in life, accessing support in her 20s.
The result:
After sessions working together individually and learning how to manage her neurodivergence, she said, “I’ve learned more about my own unique brain in our sessions than I’ve ever learned - with all the other supports I’ve had since I was a kid.”
Male, late teens
Struggling with his neurodivergence, this client failed his first year of university twice.
The result:
Through guidance and learning about ways to support his brain to focus, break tasks down and complete work, he has just passed his first assessment and hopes to continue working towards a successful study plan in the future.
