I have been working with people with ADHD since 2002. I am a qualified teacher with ADHD and have 2 children also diagnosed. My staff and I work one-on-one, as groups do not work well for ADHD. We use a multisensory approach and enhance the use of logic rather than memory. We remediate and test on national benchmarks to be sure of improvement. We assist children to gain mastery over their learning. The flow on is self confidence, social skills, building relationships, insight into their own ability. We create a safe environment for them to learn and a place where they are valued.

Nicola Cohen Clinical Psychologist BPsych(Hons), MClinPsych A safe and nurturing space to explore, acknowledge, and feel your emotions in order to process them and heal. My name is Nicola and I work with children, adolescents, and their families in addition to young adults. I pride myself on my openness, relatability, and ability to make clients feel safe, validated, and heard. As my clients know, one of my favourite sayings is ‘you can’t heal it, until you feel it’ and from this, Feel to Heal Psychology was born. As an avid Harry Potter fan, I couldn’t miss the opportunity to use the beautiful reference of Fawkes, a phoenix, to represent this practice. This is because my very essence as a psychologist is to support my clients to rise up from their difficulties, and look inwards to feel and process their emotions to become the best version of themselves. Outside of work, I am a wife and mum of two beautiful boys and two wonderful fur babies. We love spending time as a family and with friends, travelling, adventuring outdoors, are board games and movie nerds, and I also love curling up with a book and a cup of tea!
