Our Trainings

Our trainings are all designed with our key values at the forefront, and aim to foster curiosity, adaptability and motivation for change. With over 25 years experience in the field of neurodiversity, we combine tried and tested strategies with interactive delivery methods and up to date research.

We deliver regular trainings within the community for free whenever we are able to find funding, and can also tailor our training packages to suit organisations, schools or to meet your requirements.

If you are interested in any of the below courses, please get in touch using our contact form with your name and location.

We can then let you know whether we are currently running any programs, or can add you to our waiting list to be notified when we are next running any trainings in the community. 

We have also developed online courses that can be completed entirely independently for some of our trainings. Where this is available, the link will be provided below.

In 2018, we developed the 12 Step Anxiety Recovery Program - a program of psychosocial education using adapted CBT principles that aims to provide strategies to develop resilience and learn how anxiety can work for you, rather than against you. 

The program has been successfully adapted for young people, individuals with neurodiversity, parents/ carers of anxious children, and professionals working in mental health.

You do not have to be neurodiverse to attend the 12 Step, however it can be successfully adapted for neurodiversity.
