About Sandra

Sandra is proudly neurodivergent. Completing a Davis programme in mid-life was a truly transformational experience for her and inspired her to share this beautiful work with others. Through that journey, she discovered that she simply thinks differently — and instead of seeing that as a limitation, she became excited about the possibilities it opened up.

Alongside her Davis facilitation work, Sandra brings extensive experience from working in the NGO sector with people navigating mental health challenges. This has shaped her understanding of neurodiversity and strengthened her compassion for the many challenges that can come with living in a predominantly neurotypical world.

Sandra believes everyone deserves to know they can contribute meaningfully — to their own lives and to others’. She loves supporting people to discover what excites them, recognise opportunities, take confident action, and make decisions and connections with greater ease.

Sandra is inspired by the global intention to work together to move Davis from 'unknown to unforgettable.' Her purpose is to work with children, young people and adults through clay and connection, to plant seeds for growth, self-expression, and meaningful change.

Sandra's Success Stories

It has been a wonderful process watching James work with you and develop a much stronger and clearer sense of self. He has become more assertive in who he is and we look forward to guiding him further in this journey as he continues to grow. We have been so appreciative of your patience, skills and wisdom in working with James. It has been invaluable.

Doing the Davis Programme with Sandra has really helped my ability to read, write and focus. Since completing the programme I no longer accidentally re-read the same sentence and my spelling and writing have improved significantly. Sandra has also equipped me with tools to help me focus if I get disorientated which are extremely helpful. I would recommend this programme to anyone who has difficulty reading, writing or spelling. It’s impact on my life has been huge and really positive.

I was finding it hard to make big decisions before Davis, Sandra gave me a framework to take responsibility and own my decisions for which I am ever grateful.

Stu – Davis Concepts for Life (Adult)

Looking back, the stand out for me was that my life was stuck in a loop. I so desperately wanted growth in areas like responsibility and accountability, emotional regulation, managing highs and lows and my mental health, but no matter what I did, I never really made traction or true change.

During the course the physical world concepts, like cause and effect, sequence and order really opened my eyes to see things that I had never seen before. I became so much more aware of order and how it’s all around us. These concepts enabled me to see the steps that were involved in tasks, which reduced overwhelm. I quickly noticed the change in my understanding of the physical world concepts.

It’s only been two years after completing the course that I have really started to see the development and integration of the internal concepts around responsibility and motivation. It has been these internal concepts that have made the difference in producing deep internal change. The old loop is no longer running.

I am seeing exponential growth in my understanding of self, others and relationships. Most significantly I have a new understanding of responsibility that has opened up
the world of self-determination and autonomy to me.

The life concepts programme has been absolutely pivotal to the healing journey that I’ve been on for many years.

Laura – Davis Concepts for Life (Adult)

Sandra has been phenomenal with myself and my son. We learnt how to slow down, regulate, and orientate our attention to a task that we would like to focus on. My son started to immediately feel more confident and curious about things that he had never noticed before. And because of doing the course I have become more connected and understanding to how my son thinks, feels, and learns. It has been a wonderful experience.
