Workshops

I am an experienced facilitator, and as well as working with clients 1:1, I also offer several online and in-person trainings and workshops. My particular areas of interest are:

Neurodiversity
Autism
Gender, Sexuality & LGBTQIA+ issues
Emotional Freedom Technique
Body Liberation / Anti-Diet

My clients over the last few years have included: Animas Centre for Coaching, Cambridge Regional College, AREWEOKUK’s Escapes, Queer Spirit Festival, Anti Diet Riot Fest, Freedom to Learn Forum, Independent Domestic Abuse Service (IDAS) and Heidi Mavir’s Unstoppable Parents program.

Training can be tailored to your needs. If you’d like to enquire about booking me for training, an event or for press comment, please get in touch here.

Workshop on Demand: An Introduction to Neuro-affirming Practice: Autism, ADHD & Neurodiversity

It’s estimated that 1 in 7 people are neurodivergent and fewer than 50% know it. As coaches, therapists and practitioners, we are almost definitely supporting neurodivergent clients and have rarely been taught the skills we need to create neuro-affirming spaces for them.

This 2-hour workshop covers:

The Neurodiversity paradigm
An overview of Autism and ADHD, including sensory processing
What your neurodivergent clients might be experiencing
How to create neuro-affirming spaces and experiences
Signposting and resources
