Neuro-Affirming Practice: Supporting Neurodivergent Clients
A two-hour workshop on neuro-affirming practice and how we can better support neurodivergent clients.
Working in a neuro-affirming way can shift not only how we understand our clients, but how we understand the work itself.
This workshop explores what that can look like in practice, offering a clearer framework for recognising neuro-normative assumptions and responding more supportively to neurodivergent clients.
In this session, Louise will draw on her lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic and multiply neurodivergent person, alongside her professional experience as a disability practitioner, therapist and supervisor specialising in supporting clients exploring their neurodivergent identity.
Together, we will explore how dominant assumptions about what is “normal” can shape therapeutic work, and how becoming more aware of these can support more meaningful, respectful and effective practice.
