Perhaps you've got a hundred things going around in your head, but some days even starting the simplest task feels impossible.
You might spend the day managing work, family and everyone else's needs, only to come home completely exhausted. Another question, another noise or one more thing to do can feel unbearable.
Maybe you struggle to switch off at night, replay conversations, feel things intensely or find that busy environments leave you overwhelmed.
For some people, this is what ongoing stress, anxiety or burnout can feel like.
For others, particularly adults with ADHD, autism or AuDHD, these experiences may have been part of everyday life for years. A diagnosis can help explain why certain things have always felt difficult, but it doesn't necessarily make them any easier.
And there is so much to value about different ways of thinking. The curiosity, creativity, imagination and ability to see possibilities that others might miss.
You don't need to change who you are.
But whether you're neurodivergent or simply finding life increasingly overwhelming, you may need support with the anxiety, poor sleep, nervous tension and exhaustion that are making everyday life difficult.
That's where personalised herbal medicine may have a role, supporting your health in a way that takes account of who you are and how you live.
Read more about my approach to ADHD and neurodivergence.
I'm Dellna Illavia, a Registered Medical Herbalist (MNIMH) with over 30 years' experience in health and herbal medicine.
I have ADHD myself, and I've raised and home-educated neurodivergent children. Understanding our different ways of thinking has shaped much of my life, and herbal medicine has been an important part of supporting our wellbeing for many years.
I've also worked with neurodivergent clients in my clinical practice, helping them address difficulties such as poor sleep, anxiety, nervous tension and prolonged stress.
My approach starts with understanding you.
I look at your health history, sleep, digestion, energy, nutrition, medications and the demands of your everyday life. I'm interested in how these things connect, rather than simply treating each symptom separately.
From there, I create an individual herbal treatment plan, using carefully selected herbs and practical recommendations suited to your particular needs.
My aim isn't to change how your mind works. It's to help you find better ways of supporting your health, so everyday life doesn't have to feel quite so exhausting.

If you're struggling with anxiety, poor sleep, exhaustion or overwhelm, we can look at what's going on and what kind of support might help.
My three-month Herbal Foundation Package (£397) gives us time to work together, with an initial consultation, three follow-up appointments and ongoing support.
If you'd prefer to begin with a single consultation, that's available too.
Appointments are available online across the UK or in Cobham, Surrey.
I'm Dellna Illavia, founder of The London Herbalist. I'm a Registered Medical Herbalist (MNIMH) with over 30 years' experience in health and herbal medicine, and a background in medical sciences.
My approach brings together clinical herbal medicine, careful listening and an understanding of how sleep, stress, digestion, energy and the nervous system affect one another.
I have a particular interest in ADHD, autism and AuDHD, informed by both my professional experience and my own understanding of neurodivergence.
