Our Compass Points

Why not drop us a message?

A lighthouse is a steady guide in shifting conditions, and that is the heart of Light House Minds. The beam doesn’t tell ships where to go, and it doesn’t change the storm, it simply offers clarity, direction, and a safe point to return to. For many people navigating ADHD, identity, relationships, or life transitions, the world can feel foggy, overwhelming, or hard to orient within. Lighthouse Minds exists to offer that calm, consistent light: not to steer your life for you, but to help you see your own path more clearly, trust your inner navigation, and move forward with confidence and compassion.

☀️ Accessible Excellence

Our private ADHD assessments are online, making them easier to access for those who might struggle to reach a clinic. Everyone deserves a high-quality assessment without a premium price. Our transparent, affordable approach gives you gold-standard tools, evidence-based methods, and in-depth interviews by a specialist clinical psychologist, without hidden fees.

☀️ Complete Understanding

Your story is unique, and we treat it that way. Beyond checklists, we blend a thorough developmental history, validated questionnaires, and objective tasks with a compassionate clinical interview, delivering a bespoke report that truly reflects your life, strengths, and challenges of our wonderfully neurozippy clients.

☀️ Ethical Professionalism

Rigorous science and clear communication go hand in hand. Our HCPC‑registered Clinical Psychologist credentials, adherence to the clinical gold standards, and meticulously crafted reports mean GPs, employers, and educational institutions trust our findings, and so can you. We place ethics at the heart of our practice, and if you do not fit the criteria of a ADHD diagnosis, we have ongoing support options that will help you to find meaning for your experiences.

☀️ Swift Access

Long waitlists shouldn’t stand between you and clarity. We prioritise prompt online booking, swift screening calls, and clear timelines from first contact to feedback, so you move quickly through an organised, client‑centred process instead of languishing on a list.

☀️ Affirming Inclusivity

At Lighthouse Minds, D = Difference, never Disorder or Deficit. Everyone’s identity matters. As a neurodiversity-affirming, LGBTQ+-competent practice, we use inclusive language, respect pronouns, and recognise intersectional experiences, you shouldn’t have to educate your clinician to be understood. Research shows neurodiversity doesn’t undermine self-knowledge of gender or sexuality, and our reports make that clear.

☀️ Continued Support

Diagnosis is just the beginning. If you meet ADHD criteria, you’ll get a personalised toolkit of strategies, resources, and accommodations to support your daily life. We take a holistic view, focusing on both psychological and social well-being as well as your neurotwisty resiliency!

Affordable follow-up coaching or therapy sessions are available to help you put these tools into practice and navigate life with confidence. If you’re interested in medication, we can refer you to a private provider for a supervised trial, ideally alongside therapy, in line with UK ADHD guidelines.

Testimonials

Two young adults are sitting at an outdoor table, looking at their smartphones and laughing together.

"At a time when I was struggling with isolation after my partner decided to move back to Spain after losing his job to Covid, and working through a process of reevaluating my life through a new lens of autism and ADHD, the approach was a real lifesaver in helping me reflect on my coping strategies, strengths, and values. Easy to reach out to, and online sessions suited me really well. [The] warmth and kindness helped me feel accepted and safe at a time when I’d had some horrific homophobic ableist online abuse that triggered old trauma. I feel that a good connection with a therapist such as this can be helpful not just in the moment, but at later times when we think back to those sessions and how helpful they were.”

"Making contact was simple and straight forward, exactly what I needed and what drew me to enquire in the first place. [my psychologist] was every bit as approachable and responsive as I'd hoped, I felt very secure. Contact was the result of searching for someone with his areas of expertise. This doesn't guarantee the right relationship fit though, so it was truly reassuring and a relief to find that ours was easy to build; intuitive, responsive, inspiring - everything you want from the relationship, really. “

“[My psychologist] was open about finding ways to focus our conversations; ways that would work for me, and with me. I was so grateful for the honesty, as I might otherwise have struggled to articulate what I was trying to achieve. From that moment on our sessions have been all the more brilliant, with lightbulb moments, back-and-forth and a really good flow. I was specific in my search for someone who would understand the queer experience and neurodivergence. It's been so valuable to find someone who works with both areas, as there's never any doubt in their understanding or empathy. Several sessions into our work together I was walking taller, with more resilience and the tools to practice self-care, authentically. I've no doubt that [my psychologist] got me there, and no previous therapy has put me in that place. I'm truly grateful to [my psychologist], and look forward to our next conversation already!"

“When my adult son needed support with his mental health I wanted him to be seen as soon as possible by a professional. However as my son has ADHD, which was partly contributing to his mental health difficulties, I wanted it to be someone who could adapt to these additional needs and not just anyone. [My psychologist] was incredibly responsive which was such a relief and reassuring as a parent. My son quickly felt understood and noted that he was surprised and pleased to be asked what he wanted from the sessions initially. Giving my son a sense of control over the sessions has helped him a great deal along with giving him reassurance about his difficulties and education so he can be informed about why he was experiencing what he was experiencing. Importantly my son was helped to see his situation in less rigid/fixed terms which was initially difficult for him due to his neurodivergence. Session availability can be viewed and booked online giving you choices about when to have sessions. All in all I would wholeheartedly recommend.”
