NAOS Institute

At JKL Therapy Centre, we are proud to highlight the outstanding contributions of Justyna Kulczyk-Lewinska, our lead psychotherapist.

Course philosophy
In line with specialist ScoPED and revised COSRT psychosexual and relationship therapy competences the training is run at postgraduate level 7, hence all NAOS trainees shall already be qualified generic practitioners.
The Advanced Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship Psychotherapy is underpinned by a strong commitment to all communities and client populations our trainees serve with deepend sensitivity to a wide range of gender, sexuality and relationship expressions. We acknowledge the complexity and richness of human experience and the necessity of recognising and valuing the intersecting identities that clients bring to the therapeutic space. Our graduates are called to serve everyone, be they “mainstream” or “erotically marginalised”.

At the heart of our course is the intentional use of self and “beyond schoolism” (Clarkson 2010) – in that sense the programme is formational rather than “information” based.
We encourage a critical awareness of power dynamics, systemic inequalities, and the lived experiences of those who are privileged as well as those from marginalised communities.

1-Day Experiential Training: Working with Neurodivergent Adults

Enhance Your Competence and Confidence in Neurodiversity-Informed Practice

This immersive 1-day training is designed to empower professionals like you to deepen your understanding and skills when working with neurodivergent adults. Through an experiential approach, we’ll explore a range of neurodivergent presentations, including:

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

  • Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)

  • Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD)

  • Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA)

  • Dyslexia

  • Alexithymia

  • Synaesthesia

  • Tourette’s Syndrome

A Developmental Approach to Neurodivergence

Moving away from pathologising psychiatric terms, we’ll adopt a developmental perspective to better understand the lived experiences of neurodivergent clients. Together, we’ll discuss common presenting issues in sex and relationships, including:

  • Sensory processing challenges in sexual intimacy.

  • Navigating rejection sensitivity in dating.

  • The impact of alexithymia and OCD on relationships.

We’ll also explore the intersectionality between neurodivergence and identities such as gender, asexuality, non-monogamy, and kink.

Who Should Attend?

This training is ideal for psychotherapists, counsellors, educators, and other professionals who work with neurodivergent adults and want to enhance their expertise in this area.

Join us for a day of learning, reflection, and actionable insights.
