Join our Information Sessions
It is so important to understand behaviours (including our own) before we try to manage or adapt them.
Our sessions are designed to help participants understand the condition and its comorbidities, and to explore how behaviours can manifest from them. We look at how these conditions can impact an individual’s or family’s functioning and ways to recover this functionality. We try to build resilience and emotional intelligence by developing strategies that suit our participants with them.
Our sessions are delivered as flexible six-session programmes by our most experienced worker, alongside one of our most trusted parent mentors. During the Covid-19 lockdown, these sessions are being delivered remotely, by video calls.
Below are two testimonies from our ongoing sessions:
“Honestly this has been unbelievably helpful, and [our parent mentor’s] support and input just added to the experience!”
“These FIS sessions were just what we needed to help us understand. You have got to the very essence of the difficulties! Thank you.”
