Saw Ashleigh for my son's developmental assessment in Balgowlah. She was incredibly thorough, explained every step clearly, and helped us understand what next for our little one. Highly recommend if you’re after practical next steps and friendly, calm guidance.
As a parent, I felt listened to from the first session. Ashleigh’s approach to parent counseling has been a game changer for our family. We’ve started simple behavioural plans at home and the improvements are noticeable already.
Engaging and patient. My child started social skills sessions with Ashleigh and they’ve built confidence in a supportive environment. The practical activities we can reproduce at home are incredibly helpful.
We’re in Chatswood, but it’s worth the short trip to Balgowlah for Ashleigh. Her CBT sessions helped my teen manage anxiety in a respectful, non-judgmental way. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Fantastic developmental assessments for my daughter. Ashleigh broke down the results into simple, actionable steps and supported us with follow-up planning. The whole process felt compassionate and professional.
Ashleigh’s behavioural intervention planning gave us clear strategies that actually work at home and in school. It’s refreshing to find a psychologist who combines eyes-on-practical with warmth.
Thank you, Ashleigh, for the fantastic family session in Balgowlah. The parent coaching helped us coordinate better as a team, and my child has made real progress with the new routines.
