Looking for answers? Neurodiversity (Autism & ADHD) affects how a person thinks, feels, and interacts with others and their environment. It is something you are born with. It is not an illness or a disability, it just means your brain works in a different way to other people. Every neurodivergent person is different to every other. This is why autism is described as a 'spectrum'.

Book an appointment with one of our Psychologists today to discuss whether an assessment to determine neurodiversity may be beneficial.

It is a lifelong disability that starts when a person is born and stays with them into old age. Every person with autism is different to every other. This is why autism is described as a 'spectrum'.
