Experts in ADHD & Autism
A boutique mental health clinic specialising in ADHD & Autism Spectrum Disorder in children and adults
My Story
I am a clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience in working therapeutically with
neurodivergent children and young people, those with disabilities and their families. I have extensive
experience in the assessment, diagnosis and support of neurodevelopmental conditions such as Autism
Spectrum Disorder, ADHD and Intellectual Disabilities as well as developing psychological formulations
for children and young people who do not fit into these diagnostic ‘boxes’ but who would benefit from
further understanding of their particular skills and needs.
I have specialist skills in providing psychological support and treatment to neurodivergent children,
young people and their families who experience difficulties with emotional regulation, behaviours of
distress, eating and sleeping. I draw upon several therapeutic models in my formulation and therapeutic
work including ACT, CBT, psychodynamic and systemic ideas.
