Founder and Program Author, Dr Connie Buckingham (PhD), is the psychologist behind Social Stencil.
Connie first developed Social Stencil in 2008 for an all-girls school, in an effort to reduce relational aggression—a form of bullying. Since then, Connie has undertaken PhD research to expand and evaluate the program, and in 2021, with the support of Australian advocates with lived experience, the program was further developed to become neurodiversity-affirming.
Connie’s lived experience and breadth of work as a psychologist, research supervisor, and sessional lecturer all help to inform the ongoing research and development of Social Stencil.
In 2025, she was awarded the University of Melbourne Arts Alumni Giving Award for her contribution to the neurodiversity-affirming movement.
