Neurodiversity Workshop

We are pleased to offer a full-day training designed to equip therapists with practical skills and confidence for working effectively with neurodivergent clients. This comprehensive workshop explores various forms of neurodivergence, including Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism spectrum, Dyslexia, Developmental coordination disorder (Dyspraxia), and other neurological differences.

Participants will gain insight into how neurodivergent individuals may experience emotions, communication, sensory environments, and therapeutic relationships differently. The training covers key topics including recognising neurodivergent traits and masking, understanding how neurodivergence can co-occur with mental health presentations such as anxiety and depression, adapting communication and therapeutic approaches, making reasonable adjustments in practice, and modifying standard models where appropriate.

Through engaging discussions and practical activities, attendees will build confidence in delivering neurodiversity-affirming therapy. This workshop is suitable for counsellors, psychotherapists, psychological wellbeing practitioners, and other mental health professionals working in NHS or private practice settings.
