About Michael
Michael spent more than 15 years in education and community mental health before completing clinical training, and brings a published research background to the practice.
Their specialist area is autism spectrum assessment across childhood and adulthood — including the adults who reached midlife before anyone suggested it. Michael also works therapeutically with autistic clients and their families on the difficulties that come after a diagnosis.
Their approach
Michael explains assessment results the way a teacher explains them: in terms of what to do differently on Monday morning. Reports are written for the school and family who have to use them.
