If you’re coming in person, don’t expect a stuffy beige office; it’s just not our style.
We have an unserious Lego collection, chickens in their yard, and if you’re comfortable with dogs, you may also meet Snowy the Schnauzer.
We take our work seriously, but we’re also people with real lives, interests and things we’re happy to share. The Lego is not just there to look at either; kids and adults often take a build into the room with them!
Our own neurodivergent lived experience helps us notice things others might miss, but we also know that our experience will never be exactly the same as yours. We want this to be a space where people do not have to perform, mask, or explain themselves perfectly to be taken seriously.
We pride ourselves on being neurodiversity affirming, and it really is just who we are. We get that people are all different, and regardless of what life has thrown, everybody is worthy of respect and the support they seek.
We respect self-identification, culture, personal pronouns, and client choice. We generally prefer identity-first language, and only use clinical terms where it is unavoidable.
We never practise Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) or any form of behavioural compliance therapy.
We do not use the ADOS-2 or rely on deficit-focused observations.
We do not use “high functioning” or “low functioning” labels, and avoid severity labels where possible.
We do not offer social skills training aimed at enforcing neurotypical communication.
We do not prescribe medications – we can diagnose, but only doctors, not psychologists, can prescribe medication.
