Who we are
At understaND, we are passionate about helping people to understand their individual strengths and areas of challenge, so that they can get the best out of themself.
We aim to demonstrate that all brains are unique and all are worth treasuring! Differences should be celebrated while also validating the moments that are challenging or frustrating.
We want to help you explore the nuances to how your brain works so that you can harness your strengths and ask for help and support from others where needed. This, in turn, leads to understanding from others, too.
We believe that what sets us apart is our individualised approach and the comprehensiveness of our assessments. We offer creative packs for younger people to help them understand their diagnosis, if given, rather than leaving you solo to manage this next step of your journey.
UnderstaND helps you to discover how complex yet fascinating our brains are, and how many every day things are linked to potential neurodiversity. With that understanding comes clarity, validation, support, and a path to build self-esteem.
Where we are
We are located in Chester and North Wales. Simply choose from the clinic location that suits you best.
We understand that many people are juggling work, family life, and other commitments and fitting in time for an assessment can be difficult. While we need to meet face to face for autism and cognitive assessments (including dyslexia and dyscalculia), we can offer the option of online ADHD assessments. This is also available for people who do not live in the local area.
Who we work with
We take referrals for adults and children as young as five (six for ADHD assessments). We also work with individuals who have insurance cover provided by Healix.
