Episode description

In this podcast we are joined by Rachel Westerbeek, who belongs to our Mentoring Special Interest Group (SIG) and co-leads the Neurodiversity SIG, and Jess Hendrickx, a speaker with a wealth of knowledge and experience as an autism coach and mentor gained from several years of practice and underpinned by her own lived experience.

They discuss how working with an ADHD or autistic mentee might be different, how to manage the boundaries between mentoring and mental health support, and asking what safe and effective mentoring looks like where the mentee is neurodivergent.Follow these links to find out more about the EMCC UK Neurodiversity and Mentoring SIGs.
