Introducing The Nook Neurodevelopmental Clinic and founder, clinical Psychologist, Dr Selina Warlow
The Nook Neurodevelopmental Clinic is proud to announce its specialised services in providing private autism and ADHD assessments for children, young people, and adults from the age of five and upwards. With locations in Farnham, Surrey, and Esher, Greater London, the clinic is dedicated to delivering comprehensive neurodevelopmental assessments and support.
Founded by Dr. Selina Warlow, a Clinical Psychologist with over a decade of experience in mental health services, The Nook Clinic aims to offer a supportive and thorough approach to diagnosing and understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Dr. Warlow’s extensive background includes working within the NHS and The Priory, where she honed her expertise and recognised the need for dedicated private services in neurodevelopmental care.
“At The Nook Neurodevelopmental Clinic, we believe in celebrating the strengths and brilliance of the individuals we meet,” said Dr. Warlow. “Our goal is to provide not only assessments but also ongoing support to help improve emotional wellbeing and empower our clients.”
“There is a rapidly increasing need for assessments in the UK. Fuelled by media coverage and people openly sharing their diagnosis, awareness and understanding of neurodivergent disorders is growing. We have seen this reflected in interest in The Nook Clinic, with website visits having increased by 297% in the past 12 months alone.”
The clinic takes pride in its evidence based approach and practice, adhering to the assessment protocols outlined by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). Utilising the DSM-5 criteria for diagnosing ADHD and ASD, combined with clinical expertise and observations, The Nook Clinic ensures accurate and tailored diagnoses, as well as offering post-diagnostic support following assessment, as Dr Warlow and the team recognise that ongoing support is also key.
The Nook Clinic’s multidisciplinary team comprises experienced clinicians who have specialised in working with neurodevelopmental conditions both privately and within the NHS. Understanding the potential challenges and anxieties associated with the diagnostic process, the team is committed to guiding clients through each step with compassion and clarity. They are dedicated to making clients feel heard and supported throughout their journey, is proud to be neuro-affirmative and focuses on celebrating the strengths of neurodivergence.
