Dr Lola Perez Gavino, Clinical Psychologist

I run an assessment clinic for adults, specialising in high masking autism. People who may not seem obviously autistic to others or from a traditional view of autism, but experience struggles and challenges that affect their lives, functioning and sense of identity.

Neurodiversity, LGBTQ+ affirming and strength-based service. The assessments take place online.

For those who are unsure whether they are ready or would like to have a full assessment, screening assessments are offered, to explore whether autism may at least partly explain who you are, how your brain works and your communication and sensory preferences. This screening assessment can then be topped-up if you decide that you would like a full assessment after the screening.

The assessments include a variety of measures that assist to identify autistic traits, areas of strength and challenges.

As part of my neuro-affirming stance, I am happy to make adaptations to make the assessment experience less stressful and/or overwhelming.

People have the opportunity to see a draft report, and make comments and corrections to ensure that you are happy with the final version.

The assessments meet the NICE guidelines recommendations for autism assessments in England.
