Myra provides comprehensive psychological assessments for children, adolescents and adults from approximately age 6½. Her approach is collaborative and neuroaffirming: assessment looks beyond diagnosis to develop a meaningful understanding of each person’s strengths, challenges and individual support needs.

Assessment may explore:

  • Attention and executive functioning (ADHD)
  • Autism and neurodevelopmental profiles
  • Specific learning difficulties, including dyslexia
  • Intellectual and cognitive functioning

Where appropriate, assessment considers information across home, school, work and other settings to develop a comprehensive picture of the person’s functioning. Myra aims to translate assessment findings into clear, practical and individualised recommendations that can support learning, wellbeing and everyday functioning.
