Helping neurominorities to move into education, training or employment.
Genius Within is a Community Interest Company, as such social justice is at the heart of everything that we do. We have been supporting neurodiverse/neurodivergent thinkers and individuals with hidden disabilities to find their strengths through employability and criminal justice programmes since 2015, and 40% of our work is carried out in this area.
How we can help
As a specialist provider and end-to-end case manager, we seek to identify the psychological barriers that have prevented clients from engaging in education and employment, and help them to develop strategies to overcome these challenges.
Our team of psychologists and coaches work with clients to understand their strengths and develop person-centred, targeted plans to help them achieve positive outcomes. Support typically includes a blend of one-to-one and group coaching, mentoring and workshops designed to build on their strengths, develop confidence and help them in their search for employment.

What our clients say…
“I was very pleased to have Chris. She was able to identify with me, what my strengths are and create strategies for me to try. She was keen to review these and helped me to come up with any adjustments if required. She had a great understanding of how I may struggle with certain things and had a good awareness of a lot of different resources that I could adopt.”
