Laura Donaldson | Child and Adult (Freelance) Developmental Psychologist

Hi, my name is Laura.

As a compassionate and experienced Developmental Psychologist based in Sheffield, I am dedicated to supporting neurodivergent individuals (age 11 years - adults) in navigating the unique challenges that come with living in a world that often struggles to understand or accommodate different ways of thinking, feeling, and being.

Whether you are seeking support with ADHD, autism, learning differences, anxiety, or sensory processing difficulties, my approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and a deep respect for your individual needs and experiences.

I believe that every person has their own strengths, and my work centres around empowering my clients to embrace their neurodivergence while building practical strategies to overcome obstacles. My goal is to create a safe and welcoming space where you can be yourself without judgement.

Additionally, I can provide recommendations in writing to your employment or educational setting to ensure your individual, inclusive needs are met. I offer parent sessions to deep dive into presenting issues at home and/or at school and offer practical advice and guidance.

I can also signpost you to assessment services for ADHD/ASD.

If you're looking for a therapist who truly understands the neurodivergent experience and who will walk alongside you without rushing you to fit into a mould, I'm here for you.
