What we help with
We don't treat autism itself. We support the health problems that often come with it, so autistic people can feel well in their bodies. We work alongside your GP and specialist teams, never instead of them.
The body
These are some of the most common health problems for autistic people, and some of the most treatable.
Autistic children have gut symptoms more than four times as often as other children. Gut discomfort can show up as distress, poor sleep or behaviour changes, especially when someone can't easily describe pain.
Common signs
Strong food preferences and sensory aversions can narrow the diet and leave nutrient gaps. We work gently and at a pace that respects sensory needs.
Common signs
If eating or drinking stops, or weight is falling, please see your GP promptly.
Difficulty falling asleep, waking in the night and early waking are very common, and poor sleep makes everything else harder.
Common signs
Regulation
A nervous system that is constantly on alert uses a lot of energy. Supporting the body can make regulation easier.
Around 1 in 5 autistic people have an anxiety disorder. Uncertainty, sensory overload and social demands all add up.
Common signs
If you or your child are having thoughts of self-harm or suicide, call Samaritans free on 116 123, any time, or 999 in an emergency.
Sound, light, touch, smell and busy places can be overwhelming, leading to meltdowns or shutdowns.
Common signs
Long-term exhaustion from coping, masking and overload, often with loss of skills and increased sensitivity.
Common signs
Across life
We work with autistic children and their families, and with autistic adults.
Parents often come to us about sleep, gut problems, restricted eating or frequent meltdowns. Appointments are paced and calm.
Common signs
Many adults, especially women, are diagnosed later in life after years of masking, often with exhaustion, anxiety and gut problems.
Common signs
Autism and ADHD often occur together. Our sister clinic, Neurogenics ADHD Clinic, supports people with ADHD.
Common signs
Start with an Autism Discovery Consultation. It includes a 50-question baseline profile of how autism shows up for you or your child, plus a review of sleep, stress, diet and any past blood tests.
A consultation starts with your full story before anything else is suggested.
