Hear what our clients have said about working with us

Together Diverse often refers clients through to Autistic Innovations for personal one on one guidance and support. Many have advised us that they experienced kind, caring, empathetic and compassionate support through their therapeutic services. We have found that Autistic Innovations is particularly good at facilitating group meetings to support autistic adults. This gives everyone the opportunity to learn and understand how best to support, at the same time keeping them all informed, as well as taking the burden off the person to organise, facilitate or attend multiple meetings with different agencies. We have had feedback from organisations who also found this beneficial to supporting people. I highly recommend Autistic Innovations warm and friendly services.

Debra - Together Diverse

Working with Karen has been the most rewarding aspect of my journey to better understand my neurodiversity after being diagnosed at the age of 24. Her creative thinking, compassion and life experience makes her incredibly helpful and effective as a problem solver, counsellor and life coach. Karen has also helped my family to better understand how autism impacts every aspect of my life, and is wonderful at facilitating these conversations, that otherwise would’ve never happened.
