Psychological assessment, coaching and therapy for adults
Assessment, Counselling and Coaching for Specific Learning Difficulties and Neurodevelopmental Conditions
We offer assessment and coaching for specific learning difficulties and neurodevelopmental conditions, including: dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia (developmental coordination disorder), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism (ASD), and other neurodevelopmental conditions. We offer assessments to adults (over 16 years of age), children, and adolescents, and we offer coaching to neurodiverse adults.
We use highly specialised tests to establish cognitive strenghts and difficulties. Testing is combined with extensive clinical interviewing to reach an overall understanding of each client's unique neurodivergetn experience. For further education and higher education clients, we provide a detailed assessment report with recommendations for educational support. These reports are accepted as evidence for concessions by educational funding bodies (e.g., Student Finance England, Students Awards Agency Scotland, Student Finance Northern Ireland), and by exam boards.
All educational assessments are conducted online via Zoom or MS Teams. If you are interested in having an educational assessment and wish to understand in more detail what is involved, please get in touch through our 'contact us' form and we will be in touch to discuss your needs. We work with a number of universities and colleges in Scotland. If you are a further or higher education provider needing further support for
your neurodivergent student assessments, please complete the 'contact us' form.
Counselling & Psychotherapy
We offer a range of counselling and psychotherapy support on a short-term or long-term basis. Counselling and psychotherapy can help you understand and develop coping strategies for depression, anxiety, stress, bereavement, obsessive disorders, personality disorders, PTSD, health, academic or occupational stress, and overall mental health.
We begin with an initial session to discuss everything in more depth and decide together whether there is a productive way forwards for you working with us. If we both agree that we would like to work together, then we take things from there. Frequency, times, and dates of sessions can be tailored to suit your needs. We will schedule regular reviews to ensure we provide a consistently useful and productive service.
Counselling and psychotherapy sessions take place on a one-to-one basis online (via Zoom or MS Teams), or in person. We started operating online during the height of the pandemic and have continued since then, mainly as a result of positive client feedback. The benefits to you include not having the expense and time of travelling and being able to take part in therapy from the comfort of your own home. However, if you have a strong preference for face-to-face therapy, we have locations in Surrey in the Southeast of England (Guildford), and Aberdeenshire, in the northeast of Scotland (Huntly). Just let us know when you fill in the Contact Form and we will be in contact to discuss your needs further.
