The Togetherness Project
Here’s a detailed explanation of the work done at The Togetherness Project:
What We Do at The Togetherness Project
At The Togetherness Project, we provide compassionate, personalised support for families and individuals facing challenges related to mental health, neurodiversity, and eating disorders. We understand that these experiences don’t just impact individuals but have ripple effects on entire family systems. Our goal is to work collaboratively with families, carers, and individuals to promote resilience, connection, and well-being through evidence-informed practices.
Our Specialisations
Our focus is on supporting families and individuals across a range of challenges, including:
– Eating Disorders (such as Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and ARFID)
– Neurodiversity (including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Conditions)
– Carer Support, recognising the unique needs of those who support loved ones
Our Approach
We recognise that every family and individual is unique, with their own strengths, values, and challenges. Our approach integrates family therapy principles, psycho-sensory modalities, and relational frameworks to address the needs of the entire support system.
Here’s what guides our work:
1. Family-Centred Care
We believe in the power of families and support networks in achieving positive outcomes. Our work focuses on strengthening communication, understanding, and relationships within the family to foster recovery and resilience.
2. Personalised Support
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to care. We tailor our consultations and interventions to meet the specific needs of the family system, drawing on a mix of approaches such as:
– Family Therapy
– Psychoeducation on mental health and eating disorders
– Practical strategies to help carers reduce stress and maintain well-being
3. Lived Experience Perspective
I bring my lived experience as a carer who supported my daughter through her recovery from Anorexia Nervosa. This personal journey shapes my understanding of the emotional and practical realities families face, allowing me to provide empathy and insight that complements professional training.
4. Evidence-Informed Techniques
Our work is grounded in current research and best practices. We incorporate relational frameworks, neurotherapy, and psycho-sensory techniques to support both emotional regulation and nervous system health, recognising the mind-body connection in mental health and trauma recovery.
