I'm Dr Chris Worfolk, Chartered Counselling Psychologist. I am late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD myself, and lead a team of mostly neurodivergent clinicians.

Why choose us?

  • AuDHD psychologist

    I'm late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD myself, and I lead every assessment personally. Most of my team are neurodivergent too.

  • Neuroaffirmative

    We identify strengths as well as difficulties, looking at the whole person rather than a list of problems.

  • Modern understanding

    We look at masking and camouflaging, monotropism, and AuDHD interaction, to identify presentations others might miss.

  • In-depth assessments

    Most of our assessments utilise multiple sessions and team approaches, and include post-assessment support.

What our clients say

Recently got my diagnosis. Chris was really understanding and accommodating, especially knowing I already have an ADHD diagnosis and other mental health conditions. In the past, especially with NHS, I've been constantly dismissed and avoided because of my mental health and trauma, so it's taken 30 years to get even a chance to be listened to. Chris made it comfortable to be honest and considered everything, explaining what symptoms could be explained by trauma or ADHD, but the reasons why i did meet the criteria that were not explained by those things. He gave a list of resources and wrote the report very quickly. But above everything, I felt validated. Thank you!

Chris was fantastic. He made my child feel comfortable and at ease. He was really clear about the process and really helpful with how to fill in the forms. The post assessment resources were really useful.
