Training

Jodie Mainstone offers bespoke, values-led training for professionals, teams, and organisations seeking to deepen their understanding of neurodivergence, trauma, attachment, and neuroaffirming and inclusive therapeutic practices. Drawing on over two decades of clinical experience and personal insight, Jodie provides a uniquely grounded perspective.

Jodie’s training sessions are thoughtfully designed to be both intellectually stimulating and highly practical, equipping participants with actionable tools and frameworks that can be readily applied in their work. Whether supporting individuals, teams, or whole services, the emphasis is on creating affirming, ethical, and adaptable strategies that meet the needs of diverse client groups.

Training Approach
Each session is delivered with warmth, clarity, engagement, and authenticity. Jodie’s approach is relational, trauma-informed, and rooted in practical experience. Training can be delivered either online or in person, and is always tailored to the specific needs, objectives, and backgrounds of each group.
