Knowledge is power. By understanding their unique strengths and challenges, teens build self-awareness and confidence.

Armed with knowledge, teens can navigate their world more confidently, make informed decisions about their lives, and gain control and autonomy.

Improvded understanding of neurodivergent traits can help teens navigate daily life, social interactions and academic challenges, and become less anxious.

Engaging with peers with similar challenges validates teens experiences, creates a sense of camaraderie and reducing feelings of isolation.

Being in a space with similar peers helps teens embrace their unique identities with pride, leading to increased self-acceptance and resilience.

Interacting with supportive peers helps teens develop their own unique approach to friendships and communication and builds social confidence.

Young people explore how they take in and process sensory information, and what that means about their own unique needs and preferences, and how they can adopt tools and techniques to feel more comfortable in educational and social environments and out-and-about.

Using a light-touch approach, young people learn more about the science behind stress and social anxiety, develop a greater awareness of how stress shows up for them, and start to brainstorm what they can do about it.​

Our introductory session encourages young people to explore the positive aspects of their neurodivergence and identify their own unique strengths.

This session explores the differences in neurodivergent young people’s ability to plan, organise, start tasks, transition tasks, emotionally regulate and track time. We then explore how to find unique solutions that work for us, and talk about how we can talk to friends and family about our needs.

This session encourages young people to think about what makes a good friend, focusing on the huge strengths that our neurodivergent traits can bring. We then explore the different ways we can show our friends that we care and how we can let our friends know what makes us feel cared for.

Our final session encourages young people to take everything they’ve learned about their own needs and preferences, and gives them the communication tools to more effectively advocate for themselves.
