๐ŸŒฟ Celebrating NAIDOC Week ๐ŸŒฟ

This week (July 7-14) we, as a nation, are celebrating NAIDOC Week! This is an observance practice dating back to 1975, with origins rooted in the 1938 day of mourning, to recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

This years theme is, 'The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacyโ€™.

In honour of NAIDOC Week this year, Lawson Clinical Psychology is proud to spotlight the voices and experiences of inspiring individuals working and studying in mental health from Indigenous backgrounds. Recently, we had the pleasure of reconnecting with Rahel Boon, a psychology student and Dr Tracey Westerman Indigenous Scholarship recipient, whose passion for people and commitment to cultural responsiveness continue to grow.

๐Ÿ“– Why adult assessments are essential and beneficial ๐Ÿ“ฃ

Have you ever wondered why adult assessments may be beneficial? ๐Ÿ’ญ ๐Ÿค”

Assessments for neurodiversity, such as ADHD, autism, and diverse learning profiles, offer adults the opportunity to gain insights into their unique cognitive and emotional landscapes.

Hereโ€™s why embracing the assessment process can be valuable and empowering for adults:

๐Ÿง  Recognise individual neurological profiles
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Tailor personal strategies and techniques
๐Ÿค Enrich relationships
๐Ÿ—ฃ Access individualised support
๐Ÿ’ช Foster personal empowerment
โœจAffirm one's own experiences

Good news! ๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ Our assessment waitlist is NOW open and we are currently accepting new clients!

With specialised training in ADHD, autism, specific learning disorders (such as dyslexia and dyscalculia), intellectual disabilities, and giftedness, our assessment team is equipped to provide comprehensive and accurate assessments tailored to your unique profile.

Debunking common myths about autism

Did you know that the way autistic people experience and express empathy might be different, but itโ€™s certainly not absent? Many feel emotions profoundly and are deeply empatheticโ€”they may just communicate it in ways that arenโ€™t seen as typical.

With so much information and misinformation out there. It can be difficult to know what's fact or fiction. Check out our blog written by Kelly Fullarton which debunks some common myths about autism.
