I have worked in an education setting as a pastoral worker, ELSA and finally counsellor. I have set up and run a small counselling service within a middle school aetting and supported YP within a local counselling service and sexual health clinic. In all roles I have worked closely with Education Psychologists, CAMHs, Local Authority and advocated for individual pupils (mainly neurodivergent) needs within a school and health setting. I believe so strongly that it's now time for society to approach neurodivergent people in a more fair and equal approach. Recognising the person as a whole, not just the diagnostic parts.
