Neurodiversity Affirming Services

Celebrating differences. Supporting Strengths

At Newport Counselling & Psychology Service, we proudly provide neurodiversity-affirming support for children, teens, and adults across Melbourne’s inner west. Our experienced team of psychologists, mental health social workers, and endorsed mental health occupational therapists work with autistic clients, ADHDers, and people with other learning or sensory differences—celebrating strengths, understanding challenges, and creating strategies that help you thrive. Whether in our sensory-friendly rooms or via telehealth, we offer a safe, respectful space where every mind is valued.
