About Me
I have worked in the clinical areas of autism and learning disability in the NHS and private sector for over 9 years. Alongside my work at Discover Difference, I lead an autism diagnostic pathway in an NHS CAMHS team, working with young people with co-occurring mental health conditions. I take a neuroaffirmative approach to my clinical practice and have lead work to develop this in previous roles. My interests also include autistic experiences of gender diversity and sexuality, and I am involved in work within my professional network to develop working practices in this area. I am a member of the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists.
