PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP
What sets Square Pegs apart is our personal and professional understanding of neurodiversity and learning
challenges. We combine lived experience as parents of neurodivergent children with specialised qualifications
in counselling and inclusive education. This unique perspective allows us to offer a compassionate, tailored
approach that addresses both emotional wellbeing and academic growth. We actively collaborate with families,
schools, and professionals to create a holistic support network for each child or adolescent. With expertise in
ADHD, specific learning disabilities (SLD), giftedness, and gifted learning disabled (GLD), we prioritise nurturing
resilience, self-advocacy, and a growth mindset in an environment that fosters individuality and potential.
Director's Message
As a mother of neurodivergent, emerging adults and a learning support specialist, both privately and within
schools, I bring a personal and professional understanding of the challenges faced by children with ADHD,
SLDs, giftedness, and GLD, to my practice. My personal experience enables the provision of comprehensive
support, prioritising overall wellbeing. With specialised training in Inclusive Education, Counselling, and
Counselling for Educational Professionals, I am equipped to offer emotional support and nurture resilience in
the face of challenges.
Our Philosophy
A Client-Centered Approach
Creating a safe and inclusive space where clients feel
valued, understood, and empowered, is a priority in our
sessions. Sessions are tailored to suit each child or
adolescent's unique needs and learning style, ensuring
that interventions are targeted, evidence-based, and
aligned with their individual goals. Regular
communication with parents, teachers, and other
professionals further enhances the effectiveness of
support.
Fostering Growth, Self-Advocacy, and Resilience
Our philosophy revolves around cultivating a growth
mindset, promoting self-advocacy, and building
resilience in our clients. By combining practical
experience, ongoing professional development, and
personal understanding of neurodiversity, we strive to
make a positive difference in the lives of clients,
helping them to unlock their full potential and thrive.
