Clinical profile
About Laura
I’m a Highly Specialist Practitioner Psychologist with a deep interest and extensive experience in understanding and celebrating neurodiversity. I provide thorough and compassionate assessments for adults seeking greater clarity and self-understanding around Autism and ADHD. I offer comprehensive, evidence-based assessments for adults, drawing on a range of standardised tools, clinical expertise, and a compassionate, person-centred approach.
My work is grounded in a neuroaffirmative approach — I don’t see Autism or ADHD as deficits to be fixed, but as meaningful aspects of identity that shape how people experience the world. I bring warmth, curiosity, and respect to every assessment, creating a safe and collaborative space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. I aim to offer clear, thorough, and sensitive evaluations that not only support accurate diagnosis but also help individuals and families better understand strengths, challenges, and next steps for support.
Each assessment is tailored to the individual, combining evidence-based tools with an appreciation for each person’s story, strengths, and unique ways of thinking and being. My goal is to offer insight and understanding that empower you to navigate life with greater confidence and self-acceptance.
