ABOUT US

At Gentle Sensory, we provide compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming support for children, adults, and their families. Our core mission is to empower, not to "fix." Through a range of tailored services including counselling, capacity building, and peer support, we aim to support our clients to build the confidence and skills to navigate the world authentically and thrive entirely on their own terms.

THE 
GENTLE SENSORY
APPROACH
At the heart of the Gentle Sensory Approach is a commitment to support that is both effective and respectful. We blend evidence-based practices with a neuro-affirming framework, ensuring that every strategy we develop helps you build resilience while celebrating who you are. 

EVIDENCE-BASED

The use of therapeutic approaches that have been scientifically proven to be effective through rigorous research and clinical trials.

EMPOWERMENT

Ensuring individuals are in control of their own lives, make informed decisions about their care, and develop the confidence and skills necessary to manage their mental health.

TRAUMA-INFORMED

Understanding that trauma can have lasting impacts on the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of a person, and that care should be delivered in a way that acknowledges these experiences without causing further harm.

CULTURALLY SAFE

Recognise, respect, and respond appropriately to the cultural differences and unique needs of individuals.

ACCEPTANCE

Recognising and respecting an individual's thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and experiences without judgment.
