Accountability & Focus
I offer practical support for business owners who want clarity, momentum, and a structure that actually works for them. Many of my clients are neurodivergent and receiving funding via Access to Work. These services, alongside my regular virtual assistant support, help you make progress and stay organised in a relaxed and manageable way.
Access to Work: Get Support if You Have a Disability or Health Condition
Check-Ins, Reminders and Accountability
We will schedule in Check-In Meetings each week (or twice a week) to review what you’ve achieved, where you’ve experienced difficulty and what we need to pay special attention to. There will be absolutely no judgement from me if you haven’t achieved what you had hoped for.
Next, we will look to the week ahead and plan. We’ll organise your diary together by booking in appointments and blocking out time in a realistic way.
Throughout the week I may send you gentle reminders or messages to see how you’re getting on. There will be no pressure, just finding a way of helping you keep steady progress and meet deadlines.
Body Doubling
Body doubling is a simple, but effective, technique where you work at the same time alongside another person. It’s especially useful to neurodivergent clients with ADHD, but I’m happy to book these sessions for anyone struggling with distractions or procrastination. We’ll pick a time, set our tasks, and work in parallel for a set period — checking in at intervals. These body doubling sessions are always catered to your needs. For example, some clients prefer to work in 20 minute blocks before taking a break, others 45 minutes, and for some we will adjust as the session goes on.
Body doubling works well for clearing backlogs, admin, writing or really any task that you’ve been avoiding. By being present while you work, I hope to help you feel less isolated, more confident initiating tasks and more motivated to get through your to-do-list.
Focus, Brainstorming & Strategy
I help clients that have plenty of ideas and potential projects, but can’t quite bring them to life. In our sessions, we’ll explore and develop your ideas, then create an achievable roadmap to ensure the journey is not too overwhelming.
It’s easy to stay stuck in the planning and research stage when you’re trying to do it all alone. My support aims to help you get started and also break everything down into manageable stages.

My Diary
Please note that there are times when my diary is full regarding personal assistant work and I may not be able to take on new clients. (I never like to take on so many clients that I cannot effectively assist them). In these cases, I may have an experienced virtual assistant at my sister site JH Virtual Assistant that can support you. Several of my colleagues there are supporting clients with ADHD and other health conditions and these clients are receiving Access to Work funding. At JH Virtual Assistant, I only hire virtual assistants that take a similar approach to work as I do, so you’ll receive the same conscious, reliable support that I offer (with the additional reassurance that they’re competent in working with clients with different health conditions).

Whether you are neurodivergent or simply want someone to provide some structure and focus, feel free to book a call with me.
On our call we can talk about:
Your business
I want to find out more about your business or work, how you personally are managing with work, and what you feel you need help with. This helps me decide if I can add value and help you, as I never want to take on clients where I can’t provide value.
What services you think would help
I'm very flexible and happy to figure out a support package that works for you. If you think you only need some admin support and body doubling sessions, that's amazing. If you need the full Accountability, Focus & Body Doubling Support, that's also great.
Timing
When you would like to start and if there are specific days and times you'd like to book in sessions.
My rates
I can offer slightly discounted rates for those who receive Access to Work funding.
Your health condition
We can discuss the specifics of your health condition, how we would work together and how my virtual assistant, accountability, strategy and body doubling support can help.
Accountability & Focus Support for Neurodivergent Clients
Adding gentle structure to your week, with catch up meetings, body doubling and strategy might be the move that keeps you enjoying your business or job. If your current business is feeling chaotic and you’re feeling pressure to keep things moving, stay on top of deadlines and progress new ideas, I’d love to speak to you to find out if I can help.

Any Questions For Me?
Get in touch with me if you have any questions, especially if you have never worked with a virtual assistant before. I’m not salesy or pushy, and I only work with clients where I feel I can provide actual value to them.
