In-Person Therapeutic Group for Adults with Autism and/or ADHD In Bristol

An 8-week therapeutic group consisting of psychoeducation, reflective space and facilitated discussions. Each week has a different theme to learn about, reflect on, and talk about. These include burnout, pacing and self-care, and communication differences.
Sessions have a structure of either
1st part 1hour - 15 min break- 2nd part 45 mins or

1st part 45 mins -15 min break -2nd part 1 hour.
This will depend on the theme and how everyone in the group is feeling. We can also add extra breaks if needed, and you can leave the room at any time if needed.

This group is run by Tristan from Starlight Therapy, in partnership with the Space to Grow programme at St Werburghs City Farm.

Tris is an NCPS senior accredited psychotherapist and a Pink Therapy advanced accredited GSRD Therapist.

They are a Queer, AuDHD, non-binary, disabled, white, working-class person whose pronouns are they/them. Tris' work centres around disability, neurodivergence, and queerness with a commitment to anti-oppressive, trauma-informed practice.
They have full insurance, are registered with the Information Commissioner's office and hold an Enhanced DBS certificate.

• You are an adult (18+) Navigating the unique experiences of ADHD and/or Autism
• You have a diagnosis or are self-diagnosed
• You use verbal communication all or most of the time
• You want to connect and learn from peers who truly understand your experience
• You want to gain tools and strategies to enhance your daily living
• You want to explore topics tailored to you in a supportive atmosphere.

This is a pilot project as part of the Space to Grow programme.
This group is being offered on a pay-what-you-can basis.
Each session must be booked individually.
Real session costs per person are £35. The partnership with St Werburghs City Farm means I have committed to paying the lowest room hire rate, with an agreement that if more session payments are received, then more will be paid for the room.

I am currently facilitating this group on a voluntary basis to provide this much-needed space. I will take any money left over once the room hire and expenses have been covered.
I have also chosen to absorb the event bright fees for these sessions so as not to add on an extra payment for people. I urge you to please pay what you are able so that I can continue to run more of these in the future.
If you are no longer able to make a session, please cancel your space as soon as you know, so that it can be made available for someone else, as spaces are limited. Thank you.
