A New Approach To Behaviour
Led by science. Rooted in connection. Built for today’s services.
Children don’t start with behaviour, they start with their bodies.
Across schools, social care and local authorities, professionals are supporting children whose nervous systems are under constant pressure. We’re seeing more overwhelm, more shutdown, more big emotional responses and fewer moments where traditional behaviour systems seem to help.
Families are exhausted.
Staff are stretched.
And services are carrying the weight of it all.
InnerMe exists because this isn’t a motivation problem,
it’s a nervous system one.
We help services understand what children’s bodies are telling us, so adults know how to
respond calmly, confidently and consistently, without escalating situations or burning themselves
out.
If your service wants calmer days, safer relationships and approaches that actually make sense
in real life, you’re in the right place.
InnerMe helps schools and children’s services understand behaviour through the body and nervous system — not rewards, punishments or blame.
We give professionals a shared, science-backed framework so they can:
● understand why behaviour is happening
● respond in ways that build safety and trust
● support children who are overwhelmed or hard to reach
● reduce crisis, confusion and burnout
InnerMe supports children, families and the staff working alongside them.
Working With Services
Making sense of behaviour by understanding the body first.
The world children are growing up in has changed and their nervous systems are carrying the impact.
When stress, sensory overload or emotional pressure builds up inside the body, behaviour
becomes the only way a child can communicate. What we see on the outside is often the very
last part of the story.
InnerMe helps teams understand:
● what the child’s body is experiencing
● why the behaviour is happening
● how adults can help in a way that actually works
This approach is practical, evidence-based and designed for real settings — classrooms, home
visits, meetings, corridors and crisis moments.
Who InnerMe Is For
InnerMe is designed for services working with children and families where things feel increasingly complex.
We work alongside:
● Schools – mainstream, SEND and alternative provision
● Social care teams – family support, safeguarding and early help
● Local authorities – SEND, inclusion, early years and commissioning
● Charities and third-sector organisations supporting children and families
InnerMe is particularly relevant when services are supporting children who are:
● overwhelmed, anxious or burnt out
● shutting down, masking or avoiding
● showing big emotional or behavioural responses
● impacted by trauma, instability or unmet sensory needs
● described as “hard to reach”
And just as importantly, InnerMe is for the professionals supporting them, staff who care deeply, but are feeling the emotional toll of constant dysregulation, crisis management and responsibility.
You'll Recognise the Need for InnerMe If:
● Behaviour is escalating despite existing systems
● Staff confidence is dropping
● Families feel stuck in repeated cycles of crisis
● Children cope in one place and fall apart in another
● Everything feels more reactive than it used to
InnerMe doesn’t add more pressure .... it brings clarity.
InnerMe: The Regulation Rhythm Practice Framework
Behaviour is the last thing you see — the body comes first.
Children communicate through their bodies long before they can explain what they feel.
Professionals are often asked to “manage behaviour”, but behaviour is only the end point of a
much deeper process happening inside the nervous system.
The Regulation RhythmTM framework helps staff understand that process clearly and
consistently:
Body signals → Safety signals → Regulation support → Connection → Learning
This framework gives teams:
● a clear way to understand what a child needs in the moment
● a shared language across staff and families
● a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming approach grounded in sensory science
● practical ways to support children who shut down, mask or burn out
● a route to reach children who feel “impossible to reach”
When a child feels safe in their body, learning and connection can happen.
When they don’t, no behaviour strategy will ever hold.
The Science Behind InnerMe
Clear evidence, explained in a way that makes sense.
InnerMe is grounded in modern neuroscience and translated into everyday practice.
Our work draws on:
● Interoception – understanding hunger, pain, emotions and internal signals
● The science of safety – what helps a child settle or sends them into fight, flight, freeze or shutdown
● Sensory processing and occupational science – how movement, environment and sensory needs shape behaviour
● Trauma-informed practice – why stressed bodies react before thinking
● Burnout and overwhelm science – how repeated stress impacts learning, behaviour and wellbeing
We take complex science and make it usable, without clinical jargon.
Training that Changes Practice
Not just understanding — real, day-to-day change.
InnerMe training supports:
● schools and SEND teams
● social care and family support
● early help and safeguarding
● local authority services
● charities and third-sector organisations
Our training helps staff:
● understand what behaviour is really communicating
● respond to dysregulation with confidence
● build emotional and sensory safety
● prevent crisis rather than constantly reacting
● reduce burnout for children and adults
Services consistently report:
● Stronger relationships between staff, children and their families.
● Increased staff confidence and consistency.
● Better staff retention and improved well-being
● System-level changes; not quick fixes
● Fewer crisis incidents
● A credible alternative to failing behavioural models
● Reduction in risk, costs and crisis
● Stronger leadership confidence
● Calmer, more predictable environments
● Improved behaviour through safety, not control
How Services Access InnerMe Support
