CLARITY CARD SORT
UNDERSTAND - EMPOWER - ADVOCATE
It's not one big thing.
It's seventy-two small ones.
I sometimes find it difficult to identify or articulate the specific stressors making something harder, even when I know I’m struggling. This tool provides specific language and examples to describe those often subtle, cumulative experiences of micro-stressors - this is incredibly validating and helps make sense of experiences that many neurodivergent people have, but may have normalised, minimised or simply never had the words to describe.
- Chris, Neurodivergent OT
The Clarity Card Sort identifies the micro-stressors neurodivergent people experience every day - so you can understand them, minimse them, and start making real changes.
Clarity Card Sort for Practitioners
Shaped through direct use with practitioners and clients, and informed by consultation with internationally recognised researchers in the field.
I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a flexible, person-centred, strengths-based and neurodiversity-affirming tool to add to their practice!
- Chris, Neurodivergent OT
Your clients aren't struggling with one big thing.
They're drowning in seventy-two small ones.
The Clarity Card Sort helps you identify, prioritise, and build strategies around the micro-stressors your neurodivergent clients face every day - and produces a full written summary you can use directly in your practice.
This is for you if...
-
You work with clients (neurodivergent or not) and know the standard tools weren't built with their experience in mind
-
Your clients struggle to articulate what's overwhelming them. They just know everything feels hard
-
You want a structured, evidence-informed way to unpack and understand what's really draining your client's capacity
-
You're looking for a practical tool that generates something tangible you can work from - not just a conversation
-
You're a psychologist, counsellor, occupational therapist, speech pathologist, social worker, teacher or ADHD/autism coach who wants to deepen your neurodiveristy-affirming practice

Sally Daley has an in-depth knowledge of the everyday challenges of neurodivergent people that stems from her many years of experience in the field, combined with an insider’s perspective. She has expertly applied her deep understanding of neurodivergent people to construct an innovative tool, the Clarity Card Sort. This tool uses a conversational approach based on the sorting of cards to explore the multitude of life’s micro stresses that have a cumulative impact and that can contribute to burn-out.
Many neurodivergent people find it challenging to pinpoint why they are feeling overwhelmed. For the first time, they have access to a tool that will empower them to identify, prioritise and build strategies around all the micro stresses that are impeding their progress.
Although designed with neurodivergent people in mind, the Clarity Card Sort is potentially beneficial for anybody who is feeling inundated by the demands of everyday life.
Professional practitioners from multiple disciplines including psychologists, counsellors, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, social workers, teachers and ADHD/autism coaches will gain a new understanding of their clients and discover new avenues for working collaboratively with them.
Sally is to be congratulated for her development of this insightful and ground-breaking tool.

HOW IT WORKS
01
Identify
Your client sorts through a physical card deck of specific micro-stressor scenarios - the small, daily situations that accumulate and erode capacity.
02
Prioritise
Together you identify which micro-stressors are having the biggest impact - cutting through the noise to what actually matters most right now.
03
Strategise
Using the results, you build targeted strategies around reducing the stressors themselves or reducing their impact - practical, client-specific, and actionable.
04
Report
The accompanying Excel tool generates a full written report you can share directly with your client - a professional, personalised document they can refer back to.

Sally - AuDHD Coach, Consultant & Public Speaker
I developed the Clarity Card Sort out of my own coaching practice. I use it with my own clients and have seen first-hand how quickly it cuts through the overwhelm to what actually matters. With 25+ years of experience supporting neurodivergent people, a Bachelor of Education, Master of Education in Autism, and lived experience as a late-diagnosed AuDHD woman, this tool is built from the inside out. It's the resource I wished existed when I started working with neurodivergent clients.
Feeling...
overwhelmed?
stuck?
lost?
done?
exhausted?
burnt out?
I want to do this for myself!
Work with Sally 1:1 to identify your micro-stressors and build a personalised action plan
This approach supports people who feel overwhelmed or who are starting to explore their neurodivergence. I saw many women struggling with burnout and simply getting through each day, and I don’t want that for anyone.
Everyone deserves the chance to live well. That might mean doing your job without burning out, enjoying parenting instead of just coping, enjoying daily life, or understanding what affects you so you can set limits and work withing your capacity.
The Clarity Card Sort is my original work. It was developed and written by me, based on 25 years of professional experience, research and my own lived experience.
What happens?
-
We sort a deck of cards that identify everyday factors that may be negatively affecting your wellbeing.
-
We explore what's happening within those factors
-
You then decide what matters most right now and set goals that are important to you.
-
We work together to identify practical changes that will genuinely help.
The Clarity Card Sorting Tool will support you to:
-
Build a deeper understanding of yourself
-
Navigate your neurotype
-
Identify what may be negatively impacting your wellbeing
-
Articulate the stressors you’re experiencing
-
Identify and advocate for the changes that could better support who you are
-
Feel empowered to live the life you want to live to support your independence, social, economic and community participation.
Afterwards, you receive a clear summary showing:
-
what’s impacting you
-
how strongly it’s affecting you
-
the actions you’ve chosen
-
the goal you’re working toward
The focus is simple: understand yourself better, reduce overwhelm, and make changes that support the life you want. But how we get there...that's where the Clarity Card Sort makes the difference!
Questions
Does this count toward CPD hours?
We recommend checking with your professional body. The 3–4 hour live training with a certificate of completion is structured to support this.
Can I use this with clients who don't have a formal diagnosis or don't identify as neurodivergent?
Yes. The Clarity Card Sort is designed for use with anyone. Diagnosis is not a prerequisite for the tool to be useful or appropriate.
Does the licence cover my whole caseload?
Yes - one purchase covers you to use the tool across your entire client caseload. There are no per-client or per-session fees.
What if I work online - can I still use the card sort?
Currently the tool is in physical format. A digital format is being explored.
