Specialist Support and Training For Practitioners
I offer specialist consultation, supervision, coaching and training designed to enhance your knowledge and skills as a practitionerworking with neurodivergent people.
By 'practitioner', I'm referring to both clinically trained professionals and education and health and social care professionals. It is vitally important that across education, health and social care, that we challenge systemic barriers and create environments that embrace neurodivergent perspectives and needs so that we can cultivate cultures of understanding, collaboration, and equity for neurodivergent people.
Fostering Collective Growth
I believe that community is at the heart of well-being, growth, and meaningful change. Whether it’s supporting individuals, families, or professionals, the power of connection and collective action cannot be overstated.
Over the last few years, community has offered me a space not only to feel seen, heard, and valued, but also to learn from and connect with people with different backgrounds and life experiences, to my own. It’s where we share our experiences, learn from one another, and build relationships that foster understanding and trust. For neurodivergent individuals, having a community that embraces diversity and celebrates differences can be transformative—providing belonging, empowerment, and the strength to navigate a world that often misunderstands or marginalises them.
In my work, I strive to create and nurture communities that:
-
Uplift Voices: Striving for everyone to feel included and to have a 'voice' within the space.
-
Foster Collaboration: Encouraging shared learning and mutual support to develop solutions that benefit all members.
-
Promote Authenticity: Offering spaces where people can be their true selves without fear of judgment.
-
Celebrate Diversity: Recognising that our varied experiences and identities make communities richer and stronger.
I believe that together, we can challenge systemic inequities and that community is not just a support system; it’s a catalyst for change.
Through my work, I am committed to cultivating these connections and helping individuals and groups build stronger, more inclusive communities that empower every member to flourish.
In 2025 I will be introducing a new community based space for therapists (of any disciplines). I'm finalising the details, because having had numerous ideas I need
to ensure its sustainable for me to facilitate.

"Kate is easy going and I can ask her anything. She has really good advice and really thinks about your personal/work situation. Kate gives practical strategies and ideas you can use without the jargon. I look forward to seeing her as I know she will give me real-life advice. I have become more organised and feel I'm achieving more with her input."

Speech and Language Therapist
"Kate's supervision and coaching have had an enormous impact on me as a therapist and as a person. She has introduced me to the Neurodiversity Paradigm and supported me to embrace a neurodiversity-affirming approach in my SLT practice. Her immense knowledge, skills and passion have inspired me to question, learn and grow. She has created a safe and supportive space for reflection and discussion, and I have developed so much as a therapist as a result."
