If you’re wondering whether ADHD or Autism could explain the challenges you or your child are facing, you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with come to me after years of feeling misunderstood, overlooked, or simply exhausted from trying to keep up.

I offer specialist ADHD and Autism (ASD) assessments for adults and children. Each assessment is thorough, compassionate and designed to provide clarity – not just a diagnosis. You’ll receive clear recommendations that are individually tailored and practical guidance to help you or your child access the right support at home, school, or work.

Alongside assessments, I provide therapy for adults, children, couples and families experiencing emotional, psychological, or relationship difficulties. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, low mood, trauma, or struggling in your relationships, I aim to help you make sense of what’s happening and find a way forward that feels right for you.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth and collaborative and I offer a confidential, non-judgmental space. You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out – we’ll work together at your own pace, exploring what matters most to you. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening in your life, understand how past and present experiences may be affecting you and identify ways forward that fit your values and goals. My aim is to help you feel safe, understood and supported so you feel clearer, more confident and more in control.

I have extensive experience across NHS and private settings, supporting people from diverse backgrounds with a range of challenges.
