How understanding helps

  • Make sense of your experiences through a neuro-affirming lens
  • Reduce self-blame and build self-compassion
  • Find words to explain your needs to others

How the toolkit helps

  • Practical ways to start tasks and follow through
  • Tools for overwhelm in the moment
  • Routines that last, without relying on willpower

How regulation helps

  • Grounding and breathing techniques you can use anywhere
  • Spot early signs of overwhelm or shutdown
  • A gentler relationship with rest and recovery

What a session is like

Who it’s for

This is for you if

  • You’re an adult (18+) living in the UK
  • You have a formal diagnosis of both autism and ADHD, whether it was months or years ago
  • You want structured, peer-based support alongside any care you already have
  • You can attend at least 9 of the 12 sessions

It might not be right for you if

  • You’re currently in crisis or at risk of harm. Please contact 999, your GP, or Samaritans (116 123, free, 24/7) instead
  • You’re looking for one-to-one therapy rather than a group
  • You don’t have a formal diagnosis yet. We can’t accept self-identifying adults at present, because we measure outcomes for people with a formal diagnosis
  • You’re under 18

Keeping the group safe

Everyone in the group goes through the same steps before the programme begins.

  • Group agreement

    Everyone signs a confidentiality agreement before the programme begins.

  • Welcome call

    A short call with everyone before they join, to check together that the group is a safe fit.

  • Emergency contact

    We ask for an emergency contact and your GP details as standard, in case they’re ever needed.

  • Secure records

    All documents and session notes are held securely on Zanda, a clinical records system.

Your privacy

Sessions are live and never recorded. If you miss one, we’ll email you summary notes and resources. You can miss up to 3 of the 12 sessions and stay enrolled.

This isn’t therapy or a crisis service

The Landing Pad is a psychoeducation, coaching and regulation programme. It isn’t a substitute for therapy, medical care or mental health treatment, and you’re welcome to join alongside your own therapist.
