For a nuerodiversity specialist i cant believe how non neuro affirming these people are.I struggle to reach out in the first place and have difficulties with organisation.I don't like dealing with online booking processes as I find them extremely impersonal and triggering i explained this to them in a email.I merely asked them to give me a call instead I also mentioned this in the email.They ignored my email and claimed they never received it which is provably, false as i would of received a bounce back email.So I sat in a distressed state waiting for a call that never came.I replied to them expressing my disappointment only to be told Dr Newman doesn't like using the phone as it triggers her Audhd.Ive to got say I find this utterly selfish and some what ridiculous! A Audhd specialist who cant even contend with her own difficulties so much she point blank refuses to make a call! I thought she might show some empathy and step out of her comfort zone like i had to to call her in the first place! I thought she might reach out to another nuerodiverse person who is suffering.Sorry to say this never happened she clearly did not like my fair critiques and refused to work with me. All this because she cant make a call but yet claims to be able people help people who cant do these things themselves utterly ridiculous in my opinion.These people only work with people who are suffering and suggestable enough to just be told what to do and not question it and will not be flexible to people who question there self-justifying process.If you looking for help from a flexible caring and understanding Dr this is not the one she is clearly full of her own self importance and an altogether disappointing and distressing experience.

I can’t speak highly enough of my experience with Dr. Newman. From my very first appointment, she was understanding, empathetic, and incredibly knowledgeable. After years of struggling and feeling uncertain, Dr. Newman helped me finally get clarity with an accurate ADHD diagnosis and a proper treatment plan. The entire process was handled with care, professionalism, and patience. I felt listened to and supported every step of the way - something that made a huge difference for me personally. If you suspect you might have ADHD or you’re struggling to understand your symptoms, I highly recommend booking with Dr. Newman. Getting that support has been genuinely life-changing.

I could not recommend Dr Silke enough! Her work space is so calm and comfortable to be in, breaks were always offered to me during our sessions, and the fidget toys and ability to take family along with me, as well as her amazing understanding, compassionate, understanding and caring nature made my sessions not only easy, but also enjoyable. The time and dedication she spends, as well as multiple sessions with her shows how passionate she is about getting to know you and your, your family, struggles, goals and lifestyle leading to a possible diagnosis shows how important her job is to her. Dr Silke has changed my life, I now know why I am the way I am and thanks to her assessment and diagnosis. Her tools and helpful websites, tips and ideas for supporting myself and to be supported by others in the future have helped me to feel so much better knowing there is help and support on ways to cope after my diagnosis. The follow up appointment to help discuss your diagnosis after the paperwork has been sent to you to read through is a wonderful addition as it provides time for you to speak to her about things in her report you might not think are quite right. As I said, I could not recommend her more, thankyou Dr Silke!

What made all the difference in my assessment for Autism and ADHD with Silke was that she cared. It became clear early on that her main objective was for me to benefit from the whole process, not just to figure out if I meet the diagnostic criteria. A couple of times she suggested we arrange some extra time together at no extra cost so that we could go deeper into certain areas of exploration, because she thought that would be helpful for me and produce a more accurate assessment. And the quality of the report given at the end of the process was amazing; it's something I expect to be coming back to again and again throughout my life to help deepen my neurodivergence self-knowledge.

Silke is a fantastic Psychologist and a thoroughly nice, caring person. We were so pleased to be able to have her knowledge, experience and support when we needed it most as a family. We got the outcome we were praying for in the end and things are much better now. Silke played a key role in that. I would definitely recommend Silke's services and would not hesitate to use her again if required.
