Neuro-affirming Support
How we do this...
Scope services are built for you
When it comes to psychology, we know that one size doesn’t fit all. We understand this, and our practitioners adapt their therapy and assessment approaches to align with your individual experience. Our neuro-affirming support considers your:
✔️ Communication style
Communication styles among neurodivergent individuals can vary greatly. We are experienced in working with individuals who require more time to process and formulate their thoughts, and those who communicate without spoken language or use different modes of expression, such as augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).
✔️ Sensory preferences
We are always mindful of your sensory preferences, and aim to provide a calm and sensory-friendly environment for you when you’re accessing services at Scope. We also deliver services for low-vision and hard of hearing individuals.
✔️ Executive functioning differences
We have built additional layers of neuro-affirming support into our services to help with planning, organisation, and translation of new skills into everyday life.
✔️ Social and emotional processing
We provide a safe space where you can freely explore your emotions without judgement, and navigate social interactions that are meaningful to you.
Why choose Scope?
Our ND Advisory Board
To ensure our services are truly guided by the community we serve, Scope is establishing an ND Advisory Board. We believe in the principle of "Nothing About Us Without Us" and regularly consult individuals with a diverse range of neurodivergent lived experiences to provide advice and feedback on Scope's services, resources, and communications. We want these insights to directly shape how we operate and help us better meet the needs of our clients and the broader neurodivergent community.
