We approach these areas in different ways depending on the preferences of the person we're supporting; this could mean exploring the above through specific personal interests, Art, games, gaming, talking, writing, craft, movement, exercises...etc

Our 1 to 1 sessions tend to focus on one or more of the following depending on your needs and interests:

  • understanding 'my brain' - my neuro-divergence - my strengths and difficulties - harnessing and celebrating my strengths; managing and working with my difficulties in a way that works for me

  • understanding my sensory profile - what is it? - how to support my regulation

  • self-identity - who am I? - forming a positive neuro-divergent identity

  • friendships/relationships and communication - navigating through the complexities of interactions

  • depression and low self-esteem

  • Anxiety - understanding it, what it is, why it's there and building ways manage it that work for me

  • understanding the basics of trauma; what it is, how it can impact both body and brain, and what I can do to help myself

We are mindful to pitch our 1to1 sessions specifically around your interests and strengths so that sessions can feel as comfortable and safe as possible...and hopefully enjoyable and interesting! Everything is paced around you, so, for some it may mean meeting outside in a green space, for others, it will feel better to meet remotely online; some with camera on, some camera off, some at home or at our base in Exeter etc..
