Safeguarding & Inclusive Practice

​

KINDMINDSWITHKM LTD follows UK-wide safeguarding policies, tailoring them to support both neurodivergent and neurotypical clients, as well as those facing systemic barriers. Concerns are handled transparently, with care, and with a commitment to taking them seriously.

​

  • I will create safety plans together when needed.

  • I explain safeguarding steps clearly and check in regularly.

  • I aim to make service accessible, respectful, and affirming for everyone.

​

I follow safeguarding principles, including:

  1. Empowerment - People being supported and encouraged to make their own decisions and give informed consent

  2. Prevention - It is better to take action before harm occurs.

  3. Proportionality - The least intrusive response appropriate to the risk presented.

  4. Protection - Support and representation for those in greatest need.

  5. Partnership - Local solutions through services working with their communities. Communities have a part to play in preventing, detecting and reporting neglect and abuse.

  6. Accountability - Accountability and transparency in safeguarding practice.

 

Trauma-Informed & Neurodivergence-Friendly Relationship-Based Practice

​

KINDMINDSWITHKM LTD build relationships that feel safe, respectful, and supportive. My approach is shaped by trauma-informed values and an understanding of neurodivergence.

 

What this means in practice is:

  • I listen without judgment. You don’t need to mask, explain, or justify your experience.

  • I offer clear choices. You can decide how sessions work best for you—pace, format, communication style.

  • I check in regularly. ask how things are feeling and adjust based on your feedback.

  • I respect sensory needs. You can take breaks, use tools, or adapt the environment to feel more comfortable.

  • I honour boundaries. You set the limits, and we follow them.

  • I explain things clearly. No jargon, no pressure—just honest, accessible information.

  • I value lived experience. Your insights shape how we work together.

  • I understand and respect the impact of trauma—especially when it relates to neurodivergence. I recognise that trauma can affect how people think, feel, communicate, and connect. I am committed to supporting people who have experienced:

    • Neurodivergence-related trauma — including masking, misdiagnosis, exclusion, and misunderstanding.

    • Developmental and psychological trauma — including neglect, abuse, and disrupted attachment across the lifespan.

    • Social trauma — including stigma, rejection, bullying, and discrimination.

    • Systemic trauma — including institutional failures, lack of support, and barriers in education, healthcare, and social services.

  • I work with care, clarity, and consent. I adapt our approach to meet your needs and honour your lived experience.

​

This approach supports emotional safety, autonomy, and trust. It’s designed to meet you where you are, without assumptions or expectations.

​​​

Ethical Practice & Accountability

​

My work is guided by lived experience, trauma-informed values, and a commitment to collective responsibility. I welcome feedback and honour your autonomy.​

  • I respect your boundaries and communication preferences.

  • I design or use resources and sessions to support clarity, agency, and emotional well-being.

  • I have regular supervision to reflect on our practice and stay accountable.

  • I keep our training and knowledge up to date.
