As the Founder, Director, and Principal Psychologist at The Neurodiversity Network Amelia brings over a decade of expertise in the mental health sector, with a strong focus on neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, ADHD, specific learning disorders, and related challenges. With a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology, she has dedicated her career to providing tailored support to children, adults, and families navigating the complexities of neurodiversity.
Amelia’s approach is both evidence-based and deeply informed by her own lived experience. Diagnosed with ADHD and autism herself, she understands firsthand the unique perspectives and challenges of neurodivergence. This personal insight has fueled her mission to champion and empower the neurodiverse community through compassionate care and advocacy.
Her expertise includes diagnostic assessments, ADHD/autism coaching, parent education, and preventative/proactive interventions. Alongside her dynamic team, Amelia also supports eligible clients in accessing and navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), ensuring a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to care.
Additionally, Amelia is a STAP-approved supervisor, providing supervision to other psychologists assisting to enhance their understanding of neurodiversity in client presentations. Through her advocacy efforts, she is committed to breaking down barriers and ensuring equitable access to essential services and support for individuals within the neurodiverse community.
Outside of her professional pursuits, Amelia finds joy in spending time with her beloved fur baby, Suki, and embracing the great outdoors through boating, fishing, and camping adventures—when she’s not enjoying her Nintendo Switch.
