Working with and supporting autistic and neurodiverse clients

About this training event

This event represents a unique opportunity to learn about working with autistic and neurodiverse clients.

In this joint training event, Orly, a counsellor and trainer and Chris, a speaker on autism who is autistic himself, are aiming to achieve the following:

• to explain what neurodiversity means
• to increase awareness of the sorts of difficulties experienced by this client group and their families that might bring them to counselling
• to share Orly's wide-ranging experience of neurodiverse clients
• to discuss how therapy can help
• to discuss how counselling this group of clients might be different (or not) for the therapist
• to hear from Chris about the lived experience of an autistic person and his experiences of being a client
• To hear what we can do to help and support the neurodiverse community
• There will be at least an hour for “supervision” so that participants can bring client work and questions which will be answered by Orly and Chris.
