Accessibility & Inclusion

Our Commitment

Everyone deserves to access support, learning, and community spaces that feel safe, humane, and genuinely welcoming. My practice is built on trauma‑informed, feminist, and neurodivergent‑affirming values — which means accessibility isn’t an add‑on. It’s the foundation.

This page outlines how I design sessions, training, and resources so that people with diverse bodies, minds, identities, and lived experiences can participate fully.

Trauma‑Informed Accessibility

  • Gentle pacing with clear structure

  • Consent‑based participation (no forced sharing, no spotlighting)

  • Options for breaks, pausing, slowing down, or stopping

  • No “performance” expectations — you can show up exactly as you are

  • Emotional literacy woven throughout sessions

 

Neurodivergent‑ Affirming Practice

  • ND‑friendly communication (plain language, spacious explanations, no jargon)

  • Multiple ways to engage: visual, verbal, written, reflective

  • Predictable session flow and clear signposting

  • Sensory‑aware environments (lighting, noise, movement, comfort)

  • No pressure to mask, multitask, or “behave professionally”

Inclusive Communication

  • Choice of communication style: speaking, typing, writing, or using assistive tools

  • Visual aids, diagrams, and illustrated resources

  • Captioned videos and accessible PDFs

  • Clear headings, short paragraphs, and ND‑friendly formatting

  • Respect for processing time — silence is welcome

 

Physical & Sensory Accessibility

Whether online or in person, I aim to create spaces that feel comfortable and grounded.

  • Flexible seating and movement

  • Option to keep cameras off

  • Low‑stim environments where possible

  • Breaks built into longer sessions

  • You’re welcome to bring comfort items, fidgets, or sensory supports

Identity‑Inclusive Practice

My work is explicitly welcoming to people of all genders, sexualities, cultures, faiths, and lived experiences.

  • LGBTQIA+ affirming

  • Trans‑inclusive

  • Fat‑positive and anti‑diet culture

  • Anti‑racist and culturally responsive

  • No assumptions about identity, family, or background

Access Needs

You’re invited to share any access needs before or during our work together. Adjustments can be made at any time — no justification required.

Examples include:

  • pacing changes

  • sensory adjustments

  • communication preferences

  • breaks

  • alternative formats

  • support with executive functioning

You can include access needs in your booking form or email them directly.

Financial Accessibility

I offer:

  • sliding‑scale options for individuals

  • flexible payment plans for organisations

  • community‑rate sessions when available

If cost is a barrier, you’re welcome to reach out — we can explore options together.

Digital Accessibility

My website and digital resources are designed to be:

  • screen‑reader friendly

  • high‑contrast where needed

  • mobile‑accessible

  • captioned or transcribed

  • available in multiple formats (text‑first, visual‑first, and ND‑friendly layouts)

If you encounter any barriers, please let me know so I can improve them.

 

A Living Commitment

Accessibility and inclusion are ongoing practices. I regularly review and update my approaches based on feedback, learning, and evolving needs.

If something would help you feel safer, more grounded, or more included, you’re welcome to tell me — your experience matters.
