Assessments

Expert evaluations for neurodevelopmental differences, cognitive function, and emotional well-being.

Neurodevelopmental Assessments

With nearly two decades of experience working with neurodiverse children and adolescents, I specialise in comprehensive psychological assessment and support for autism, ADHD, learning disorders, giftedness, and intellectual disability. My approach is grounded in a deep understanding of the nuanced ways neurodivergence can present across different individuals. I am committed to recognising and valuing the unique strengths and challenges of each neurotype, ensuring assessments are thoughtful, respectful, and tailored. In addition to working directly with young people, I partner closely with parents to help them better understand their child’s needs and navigate the complexities of family dynamics with confidence and compassion.

Adult Assessments

I provide comprehensive psychological assessments for adults, including ADHD, autism, learning difficulties, and cognitive functioning. I also offer evidence-based therapy for a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, personality disorders, and neurodiversity in adulthood. My approach is compassionate, non-judgemental, and collaborative. I am mindful of the ways in which diagnostic processes can be influenced by gender and presentation style, often leading to misdiagnosis or overlooked internalised behaviours—particularly in individuals who mask or do not present in stereotypical ways. These missed or inaccurate diagnoses can result in ineffective interventions and prolonged distress. I work carefully to understand each person’s unique experience, and I gently guide reflection and problem-solving to support meaningful insight and growth. I believe people hold more strength and wisdom than they often recognise, and I aim to empower my clients to navigate personal and interpersonal challenges with greater clarity and self-understanding.
