Deep Seas is a multi-disciplinary support service based in the Northern Suburbs of Adelaide on Kaurna Yerta. Our supports provide 1:1 support for youth and young at heart seeking extra support in building the connections/relationships that matter most to them. As we are a multidisciplinary service, we focus on a holistic approach of wellbeing to assist in building those connections: looking at the whole of the person. We are able to offer this through 1-on-1 support work and/or wellness workshops. The difference with our service is our prominent focus on expressive outlets. For me personally, this is through my art which is available for purchase. For others, that may be sport, dance, other forms of art, narrative writing, cooking, board games, video games (or something else I haven't mentioned). All expressive outlets are valid and encouraged. Some specific services include, but are not limited to:
1:1 Mentoring,
Personal Care Support,
In Home Family Support,
*DBT Skills and Creative Wellbeing Workshop,
*DBT Skills Focused Training,
*What's the Buzz Workshop for Primary Age Students,
*What's the Buzz Workshop for Teenagers,
*Wellbeing and Resilience Workshop,
(Various) Creative Wellbeing Workshops.

*These services are available either as an individual (1:1) support or in a group. To follow our story, our art or to stay up to date with mental health awareness tips and info catch us on the following accounts:

🌱✨ Exciting news — I’ll be facilitating TWO events at Neurokindred's Thriving Autistically 2025 Online Program this October!

💖 Event 1: Thriving Autistically 2025 – Day 2

Odditorium: Weird & Wonderful Objects & Collections
With myself (El Payne – Deep Seas), Karen K, Melody Edwardson (Wellbeing Wise) & Sharni

Enter the Odditorium — a relaxed, no-pressure *Show & Tell* SpIns session celebrating the beauty of Autistic collecting, curiosity, and meaning-making.

Bring along your delightfully strange, deeply treasured, or wonderfully odd collections (or just photos!) — bones, buttons, fossils, dice, postcards, figurines, jars… anything goes.

Each participant will have ~5 minutes to share:
🔹 What you collect
🔹 How long you’ve collected
🔹 How you organise it
🔹 Favourite finds or stories
🔹 Why it’s meaningful

📅 When: Sunday Oct 5th
⏰ AUS: 6–7.30pm AEST | 6.30–8pm ACDT | 7–8.30pm AEDT | 4–5.30pm AWST
⏰ UK: 9–10.30am BST
⏰ US: 4–5.30am EDT

👉 Register: https://neurokindred.com/odditorium-weird-wonderful-objects-collections/

🖤 Event 2: Thriving Autistically 2025 – Day 5

True Crime & Serial Killers: The Black Dahlia Murders

Together we’ll explore the socio-cultural, artistic, and psychological landscape surrounding the 1947 murder of Elizabeth Short — known as the Black Dahlia. Through a trauma-informed, neurodivergent lens, we’ll look beyond caricatures of “victim” and “villain” to understand Elizabeth Short and Dr. George Hodel as neurodivergent individuals shaped by patriarchy, psychiatry, and surrealist art.

We’ll also reflect on Steve Hodel’s decades-long investigation of his father, reframing it as an expression of neurodivergent hyperfocus, legacy trauma, and meaning-making.

📅 When: Wednesday Oct 8th
⏰ AUS: 6–8pm AEST | 6.30–8.30pm ACDT | 7–9pm AEDT | 4–6pm AWST
⏰ UK: 9–11am BST
⏰ US: 4–6am EDT

👉 Register: https://neurokindred.com/true-crime-serial-killers-black-dahlia-murders/

I’m really looking forward to connecting with everyone at these sessions — whether you’re bringing your collections to share or joining the Black Dahlia discussion. Let’s celebrate curiosity, complexity, and the richness of neurodivergent lives.
