Toolkit

Teaching graphics, turned into a ready-to-post toolkit for a whole community of therapists.

Client
Human Givens Institute
Role
Lead designer
Launched
Early 2026

Overview

Therapists understood the approach but rarely had the time or confidence to share it online. The brief was to make posting quick and easy for anyone.

At a glance

Concept to launch

Challenge

Many therapists never posted, with no shared content to draw on

Role

Led design and production, working with the Head of Marketing

Delivered

100+ ready-to-post files · Ready-written captions and links · Quick Start Guide

Results

Built as the main social resource for the Human Givens community

Formats

One message, four shapes.

Every graphic comes in four formats. The layout adapts to each platform; the content and the look stay the same.

The Cycle of Depression graphic in the square format, 1080 × 1080 pixels The Cycle of Depression graphic in the portrait format, 1080 × 1350 pixels The Cycle of Depression graphic in the vertical format, 1080 × 1920 pixels The Cycle of Depression graphic in the rectangle format, 1200 × 625 pixels
Square · 1080 × 1080

Topics

Every topic, one family.

Topics are grouped by theme, from Emotional Needs to the Cycle of Depression, so therapists can quickly find the right content for their audience. I extended the Human Givens palette to give the graphics more variety, while keeping them recognisably on-brand.

One grid, every topic.

Every graphic sits on the same 1080 px square, so 100+ assets read as one family and adapt cleanly to the other three formats.

How it works

Designed to be used, not just viewed.

The graphics were half the job. Captions, supporting links and a Quick Start Guide sit alongside them, so posting takes four steps.

Results

Approved, launched, asked for.

Six stakeholders across marketing, editorial and senior leadership fed in; keeping 100+ assets consistent through every round was half the work. It went live in the members area in early 2026.

Weeks after launch, a partner organisation’s CEO found the toolkit in a members’ email and asked to use it with his own communications team.
