Wednesday 4th November

Wednesday 11th November

Wednesday 18th November

Goal:

Session 1: 

  • Differences in traits: internalising vs externalising behaviours

  • Social camouflage and masking – what it is and why it happens

  • Why so many girls are missed, misdiagnosed, or diagnosed late

Session 2: 

  • Anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and the masking link

  • The exhaustion of social performance

  • Supporting authentic expression and identity

  • Signs of autistic burnout in girls and teens

Session 3: 

  • Strength-based approaches: creativity, empathy, deep interests

  • Supporting friendships, boundaries, and emotional safety

  • Building self-advocacy and helping them understand their neurodivergence positively

All sessions take place in person at our Ridgway Mews Clinic at 9.30am on 4th, 11th and 18th November.

The support group is only available to people who can attend all three sessions; you will not be able to join halfway through the course.

Cost: £150 per person for 3 one hour sessions
