Where families come from

Surbiton, and the towns nearby

The practice is based in Surbiton, and families come from across Surrey and south-west London. The towns on this page are only examples. Families also travel to the practice from as far as Croydon and Hertfordshire, following personal recommendation.

Wherever you travel from

What families can expect

Families come for the same reasons, wherever they travel from. The assessment is calm and unhurried, never rushed and never clinical. You begin with a free conversation, not a form, and every enquiry is answered by me, personally.

  • A full, unhurried assessment in a quiet room, with breaks whenever they are needed.
  • A report written to the current SASC guidelines, that a school can actually use.
  • A 45-minute video call, so you understand exactly what the findings mean.
  • No referral needed, and no pressure to book anything.

Whatever your child’s age, there is a clear next step. For children younger than 8, see the Literacy and Learning Profile. For ages 8 to 18, see the Full Diagnostic Assessment. For adults and older students, see the adult assessment.
