Welcome to Vicandas Psychology
At Vicandas Psychology we are proud to offer a timely and innovative approach to working with neurodiverse families.
Our services include neurodevelopmental assessment of children and young people (aged 5-25) without the waits of NHS services. Our unique assessment model allows us to develop an understanding of an individual’s strengths and needs, without having to carry out costly or extended assessments. Where appropriate we are able to offer further diagnostic assessment for autism, ADHD or intellectual disability.
We also offer needs-focused, targeted, family-based intervention for parents of children with neurodevelopmental differences. Our interventions are designed to help achieve lasting improvements in family relationships without the need for ongoing service involvement.
All of our assessments and interventions are carried out by appropriately qualified and HCPC registered professionals with extensive experience of neurodevelopment and neurodiversity.

Neurodiversity assessments
The Vicandas neurodiversity assessment our first step in helping individuals and their families to understand their unique neurodevelopmental profile in order to help improve relationships and emotional well being. All neurodiversity assessments include a full report with recommendations for support, intervention or further assessment.

Family support
We offer brief focused programmes of intervention for families where there is at least one individual with a neurodivergent profile which is impacting on relationships, behaviour or emotional well being. Interventions are built around an understanding of the individual’s unique neuro-cognitive profile and family relationships.

Diagnostic assessments
Where appropriate we are able to offer diagnostic assessments for Autism, ADHD and Intellectual Disability. Although a diagnosis is often not needed by families it can be helpful for people to know in order to understand behaviour, to share with others and to access support.
All Vicandas diagnostic assessments are carried out by appropriately experienced and qualified clinicians in line with national clinical guidance.
