I’m Dr Trish Avery, PhD Psychology, the Founder and CEO of AINT Foundation CIC. My work centres on transforming how we understand human distress moving away from judgment and pathology, and toward ethical, trauma‑informed, non‑judgmental practice. AINT was created to challenge harmful systems and build compassionate, context‑aware approaches that truly honour people’s lived experience.

. This space exists because the current systems often misunderstand human distress — and people get labelled instead of listened to. AINT challenges that. We centre context, compassion, and trauma‑informed, non‑judgmental practice. This group is where we learn together, question harmful norms, and build approaches that honour humanity over pathology. Whether you’re a practitioner, student, parent, or simply someone who knows we can do better — you belong here. Let’s build something ethical, practical, and genuinely transformative. Join us and tell us your name and something that you wish to change during therapy ( counselling or psychology only).
