Priscilla discusses her passion for helping neurodiverse clients, including twice-exceptional individuals, who are both gifted and experience learning differences. She explains how her clinical work goes beyond diagnosis, combining deep understanding of the brain with practical strategies that help clients realise their full potential.
Standardised assessments are a cornerstone of Priscilla’s practice. Whether it's identifying ADHD, autism or learning challenges, these tools reveal key information that allows her and her team to recommend meaningful support strategies. Priscilla describes therapy as a collaborative journey and one that involves the child, their family, and educators all working together.
As Priscilla explains it, “My job is to put myself out of a job.” For her, true success is when a client no longer needs her support, as they’ve developed the skills, confidence, and resilience to move forward on their own.
