I really cannot Recommend Dr. Newsom-Davis highly enough. We have sought her advice on a number of occasions to support the provision of pupils with more complex additional needs - often with co-morbidity. Her work with the school has been outstanding, her approach extremely professional and also sensitive particularly given that the children she has supported us with were often very young and their difficulties were only recently emerging. She communicated clearly and effectively with parents and other stakeholders outlining practical steps by which their child could be supported effectively in school. Her advice has been invaluable and of enormous benefit to everyone, the child, their parents and the school. She demonstrates an extremely high level of professional competence and knowledge which helped us to both understand the aetiology of pupil’s difficulty but also, more importantly was able to support us to develop and implement appropriate provision to meet the needs of some children struggling to access the curriculum offered at the school. Her intervention has been instrumental in the successful inclusion of these children and without doubt facilitated the conditions to thrive in a mainstream setting and enabled them to meet their academic potential.

Dr Newsom-Davis completed a cognitive assessment of our son when he was having difficulty at school and socially aged five years. Her feedback and written report were clear + accurate with recommendations on the next steps to be taken. Dr Newsom-Davis provides a professional, accurate and sensitive service and we would recommend her to others.

I took my son aged 13 to see Dr Newsom-Davis as he was struggling at school. 1-2 sessions later he was a different child and performing well. Initially he was sceptical but now feels that this was a turning point in his life. Most importantly Dr Newsom-Davis was professional, extremely approachable and knowledgeable and met both my son's and my needs
