Foundation Training
The guides in this series are designed to offer thoughtful, accessible understanding around neurodiversity, lived experience, identity, adaptation, and the quieter patterns people often carry beneath the surface.
They are for adults, parents, educators, professionals, and people exploring these experiences personally - whether for themselves, someone they love, or the people they support.
Much of my work is rooted in the belief that many experiences make more sense once we have the right language, context, and understanding around them. My aim is not to overwhelm people with clinical information, but to create learning that feels compassionate, grounded, and genuinely helpful in real life.
Each guide explores a specific area in greater depth, combining professional knowledge, lived experience, reflection, and practical insight.
Current Foundation learning includes:
Understanding and Supporting Autistic Girls
A Foundation Guide
Why does she seem fine at school but fall apart at home?
Why is everything so exhausting for her?
Why didn’t anyone spot this earlier?
This guide offers a clear, grounded introduction to how autism can present in girls - and why it is so often missed.
Written for parents, carers, educators and anyone wanting to understand an autistic girl in their life, it explores masking, sensory overwhelm, shutdowns and meltdowns, friendships, identity, anxiety, school experiences, and what support can look like in practice.
It brings together lived experience and clinical insight to help make sense of patterns that can otherwise feel confusing, contradictory, or easy to overlook.
