Spectrum Sisters – Autism & ADHD Assessments for Women & GirlsSpectrum Sisters is a specialist, female-led neurodiversity service providing comprehensive autism, ADHD and combined autism/ADHD diagnostic assessments for women and girls across the UK from age 6+.We specialise in the female presentation of autism and ADHD, particularly late diagnosis, high masking and women and girls whose difficulties may previously have been missed or misunderstood. Our team is Psychologist-led, neurodivergent and brings both professional expertise and lived experience to the assessment process.Assessments are completed by a multidisciplinary team of qualified clinicians and follow NICE guidance and DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. We take a thorough, whole-person approach, looking beyond diagnostic criteria to understand masking, sensory differences, executive functioning, mental health, relationships, education, employment and everyday life. We consider co-occuring and differential diagnoses.We also provide post-diagnostic support, including neurodivergent-affirming support, coaching, sensory and functional assessments, educational support and workplace recommendations.Our aim is to provide women and girls with more than a diagnosis: a meaningful understanding of themselves, their strengths, their needs and the support that can help them move forward. Each assessment includes a minimum of three clinicians and each report includes a full neurodiversity profile, functional assessment and recommendations.Services: Autism Assessments | ADHD Assessments | Combined Assessments | Post-Diagnostic Support

I am an HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist and Chartered Psychologist (BPS), working with adults experiencing the long-term effects of trauma, relational difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and persistent patterns that feel difficult to understand or change. I also offer a lower-cost first-step Adult ADHD Initial Consultation for a £50 fee, which is fully deducted from the £950.00 assessment fee if you subsequently proceed with an Adult ADHD Assessment to get a full diagnosis. I also provide psychological assessment to develop a clearer understanding of an individual’s psychological needs and inform appropriate recommendations.Many of the people I work with are outwardly functioning but internally struggling with anxiety, emotional intensity, self-criticism, or a sense of being disconnected from themselves or others. These difficulties often have roots in earlier relational or developmental experiences that continue to shape present-day responses. I specialise in working with adults with ADHD, autistic traits, and broader neurodivergent presentations, particularly where these intersect with burnout, emotional regulation difficulties, and identity-related challenges.My approach is formulation-led and integrative, focusing on understanding how your internal world has been formed over time, and how unconscious patterns may be influencing your current emotional and relational life. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, we work toward building insight, emotional integration, and meaningful psychological change.I founded Totality Psychology to create a space where individuals can move beyond surface-level coping and develop a deeper understanding of themselves as a whole in context.
Carrie Young: Co-Founder and Clinical Director of NeuroAxisAs a dedicated ADHD specialist and the co-founder and Clinical Director of NeuroAxis, I have spent over 18 years in the healthcare field. This diverse background equips me with a unique, well-rounded perspective to support individuals navigating the challenges of ADHD. My journey as a qualified nurse, specialist public health nurse, and nurse prescriber—combined with my MSc in Public Health—drives my deeply rooted commitment to delivering the highest quality of care.Throughout my career, I have worked across a broad spectrum of frontline roles, including Accident & Emergency, community nursing, and health visiting. Notably, my time working within a 0–19 years service allowed me to support school-aged children and collaborate closely with Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), deepening my understanding of youth developmental milestones and challenges. Later, while working in substance misuse services, I noticed a striking, recurring theme: so many of my patients were secretly struggling with undiagnosed ADHD. This powerful realization sparked my passion, prompting me to specialize deeply in this field.Today, I am a trained ADHD specialist, proficient in utilizing the DIVA and DSM-5 criteria to conduct comprehensive assessments for individuals aged 6 to 65. Beyond diagnostics, I provide personalized ADHD coaching to empower clients to manage their symptoms and build actionable strategies for success. I also specialize in producing workplace adjustment reports, helping businesses thrive by ensuring their neurodiverse employees receive the right support to excel.By blending evidence-based practice with motivational interviewing techniques and compassionate care, my goal is to ensure NeuroAxis remains a leading, trusted resource. I am incredibly proud to offer the personalized, empowering support our clients need to truly thrive in their daily lives.
