Lived Understanding
I work from a lived understanding of neurodivergence. You can expect a respectful, accommodating space — not a judgment.

For you, or for your child. Learning, attention, subject choice, or a first look at ADHD or autism — screening, not a diagnosis.
What you leave with

A next step
If you need a diagnosis, that is a psychologist or psychiatrist, and I refer.
This is for you if
✓
Attention, learning, or how you or your child cope at school or work

Subject choice or career direction

You were never assessed as a kid, and you want a first look now

A Neurodivergent-Affirming Approach
Reduced Sensory & Cognitive Load
I keep sessions structured so you are not overwhelmed. Clear expectations, and a flexible pace if you need it.
Strengths-Informed Perspective
I look at strengths as well as challenges. Feedback is about working with your brain, or your child's, not against it.
Empathy and Communication
I stay in conversation with you throughout. Lived experience shapes how I explain things, not a script.
How it works
-
We talk
I hear what you need for you, or for your child, and whether an assessment is the right fit.
-
Testing
Assessment over one or more sessions, depending on the question.
-
I score
I score and interpret the results within professional guidelines.
-
We sit with the report
We go through the written report together, and talk about the next step.
Professional Standards & Ethical Practice
Practice is guided by professional standards and ethical care.
