MEET THE TEAM
All Psychologists working at The Lotus Psychology Practice have been specifically selected for their professional expertise to work within our Child & Adolescent, Perinatal & Parent-Infant, and Adult Services. Whilst each Psychologist brings particular areas of expertise, all of our team are experienced in supporting common mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem and adjustment to life challenges.
Our multi-disciplinary team of Psychologists, Occupational Therapists and Speech and Language Therapists ensure that our Autism and ADHD assessments for children and for adults are in line with NICE Guidelines.
You can contact our Practice Manager, Hannah, who can match you with a Psychologist whose experience best fits your needs.
