Minda Mentoring

Gentle knowledge for curious young minds

Helping young people — especially neurodivergent and sensitive learners — discover who they are, what they love, and how to thrive in education and life.

Founded by Laura Czernecki, MSc (Psychology of Education) — currently completing a Master of Studies at the University of Cambridge — Minda Mentoring provides psychology-based, neurodiversity-affirming mentoring that bridges emotional wellbeing, study skills, and creative confidence.

We combine the rigour of educational psychology with a filmmaker’s storytelling instinct to help children to find calm, focus and purpose.

All sessions are evidence-informed, trauma-aware and deeply human.

We believe imagination is not a distraction — it’s a language. And when we listen to it with care, it tells us what we need to know.
