Cathie Long

Cathie Long is a multi-award-winning independent social worker and a psychotherapist in advanced clinical training. She has an MA in Autism. In her late fifties, Cathie discovered that she is Autistic with ADHD. Many of Cathie’s Autistic clients have experienced oppression and discrimination because of their previous BPD/EUPD misdiagnosis, with professionals (including Family Court judges) preferring to accept the original misdiagnosis thus denying and discounting their lived experiences, often adding to the Autistic client’s perception “I’m Not-OK, You Are-OK” Therefore, the essence of Cathie’s therapeutic work is to support self-acceptance and the client to start believing “We are ALL-OK”.
