NEUROMANCERS is offering our neurodivergent+ community free, 1:1 support for six (6) weeks.

This mental health support offering provides an affirming-space to explore…

• struggles with mental health or relationships

• challenging or traumatising experiences

• negative impacts from mainstream mental health systems

• coping mechanisms, boundaries, or safety planning

• and more!

The support is flexible to your needs and takes place online on an end-to-end encrypted platform. You can choose to have your camera off/on or even use the chat.

You will meet with your Peer Counsellor each week, at the same time and day, for one (1) hour. The sessions will run from week commencing 9th February to the 16th March.

PLEASE NOTE: This is not crisis support.

We offer this program to people self-identified as neurodivergent+ who are 18 years or older.

You must be based in England, Ireland, Scotland, or Wales. You must have access to the internet and a device that is suitable for attending online meetings.

Please apply if you are confident that you will attend all six (6) support sessions.

This program is delivered by students who are volunteering within NEUROMANCERS on their university course placements.

These students are not qualified therapists or mental health professionals. Each person has been vetted via our application and interview process.

The Peer Counsellors all have lived experience with neurodivergence and have been trained by NEUROMANCERS.

All Peer Counsellors must abide by our consent-led and abolitionist safeguarding policy and practices.

You can request support by completing this application form.

Application Deadline: Sunday 18th January 2026.

We’ll be in touch during the week commencing 26th of January to let you know if we’re able to offer you support.

If so, the six (6) sessions will run from week commencing 9th February to the 16th March.

PLEASE NOTE: There are many variables when attempting to match you with a Peer Counsellor, including availability, lived experiences, or capacity. We expect to receive more applications for support than we’re able to offer. Therefore, completing an application/request form does not guarantee support.
