Location & Availability

Our practice is based in Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole. Psychological assessments for learning difficulties, including dyslexia, dyscalculia and dyspraxia can be arranged in Dorset and Hampshire.

FREE INITIAL TELEPHONE CONSULTATION with no obligation. WEEKEND ASSESSMENTS in Bournemouth are also available at no extra cost. This is a popular choice for people who can't change their weekday commitments, and avoids any time off work or school. Many clients now come from further afield (e.g. from Richmond, Twickenham, Kingston, Wimbledon, Slough, Reading, Newbury, etc.) for a day trip or weekend to enjoy the amenities Bournemouth has to offer, e.g. sandy beaches, surfing, aquarium, golf, restaurants, cinemas, music and live entertainment, etc.

All work is undertaken directly with clients, face to face, not via the internet. Venues for group training sessions can be made by arrangement.
