I occasionally present opportunities for professionals and the public to learn about areas such as neurodiversity, gender and sexuality, mindfulness, ecopsychology and other special interests. All training is based on my practice-based research and person-centred ethos.
A one-evening workshop for Neurodivergent Individuals, Professionals and Allies
This workshop explores resources for self-nurturing and community-resilience for neurodivergent people offering practical, research-informed and exploratory approaches for both individuals and professionals.
Through a holistic, neuroaffirming, trauma-aware and decolonising lens, we look beyond “coping” and productivity, focusing instead on compassion, empowerment and authenticity. Participants will explore ways to reduce stress and overwhelm, nurture nervous-system regulation, and grow supportive communities.
Who it’s for:
Neurodivergent people, including diagnosed/self-diagnosed autistic, ADHD, dyslexic and other conditions
Anyone looking for practical, affirming ways to honour their own and/or others' neurodivergent needs
Professionals, friends, family members, educators, and therapists seeking a deeper understanding of neurodivergence
By the end of the evening, you will:
Deepen your awareness, curiosity and insights about neurodivergent well-being
Learn strategies for appropriate boundaries, co-regulation, and mutual support
Develop embodied language, resonance and approaches for advocating for needs without shame
Format:
Evening workshop
Low-stimulation, reflective, and interactive
Inclusive of sensitive, neurodivergent, kind and gentle participants
Questions and Answers:
What are the teaching elements?
The session is relational and person-centred. While there will be some basic structure to accommodate learning and share tools and insights, the content will be adapted and shaped in relation with those present. This means that the learning schedule isn't set in stone. Many people appreciate this approach, so that you can get out of the workshop what you actually need.
What topics will we cover?
Again, it's not fixed in stone, however some of the topics that we may touch on include how we relate to different aspects of neurodivergence, and our own sense of wellbeing, as well as cultural or indigenous ways of being true to ourselves. No prior knowledge is required, however your contributions will be valued as we are a learning community.
What is the structure?
The workshop includes opportunities for discussion and guided activities, which you can engage with at a level that feels comfortable. While it draws from Western frameworks, I acknowledge the limits of Western science and theory and approach learning with respect for Other ways of knowing and experiencing. This is a humility-based learning and sharing environment rather than a typical “lecture-style” workshop.
Can I bring my friend/partner?
Yes, bring anyone who may benefit from the session, or be willing to support you.
This is a space to explore ways of relating to self and others that are relational, affirming, and grounded in real-life needs — not prescriptive or one-size-fits-all.
Time: 6.30 pm to 8 pm
You may offer a self-selected contribution (e.g. £15 to £30) to pay toward facilitation costs; no one will be turned away for financial reasons.
