Our Approach
All evaluations are conducted by our licensed psychologist, Dr. Rachel Sandercock, and are grounded in a neurodiversity-affirming framework. Our goal is not to pathologize differences, but to understand each person’s strengths, support needs, and unique ways of engaging with the world.
We prioritize:
-
A personalized, collaborative approach

Respect for autonomy and identity

Clear, actionable recommendations

Support that continues beyond the report
