Kate Hardiman
EDUCATIONAL and DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGIST
When I was growing up school didn’t seem to fit me, or I didn't seem to fit it. In my house it was called ‘The Feeling’. I liked to learn, but I didn’t like to learn at school. I grew up and went to university to study psychology and literature. I launched my career working in schools (a place I never thought I'd work.) It was clear to me then, I didn't want any other child to feel the same unease I had felt in school.
Today, I provide assessments for children and adolescents facing learning differences and assessments for neurodiverse women. I bring clarity to understanding learning needs, while also offering strategies for navigating daily challenges. I offer a secure base for adult women to wonder about who they are and different ways of thinking and being in the world, through the process of later in life discovery and assessment of neurotype.
