I am a Chartered Psychologist, which means that I am publicly committed to the British Psychological Society’s Code of Ethics and Conduct. I am Registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, which assumed Statutory Regulation of Practitioner Psychologists in 2009. My approach to psychological assessment looks at people's strengths and difficulties, and helps to put current emotional or behavioural issues into the bigger picture of their life-long development. I use questionnaires, psychological tests, and interviews to gather information on behaviour, intellectual skills, sensory needs and attentional processes. While the psychological assessment process may involve consideration of labels such as autismâ€, Asperger syndromeâ€, ADHDâ€, dyslexia†and so on, the overall aim is always to use scientific psychological models to help people to understand their own experiences.
My name is Peter Ludlow, and I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, specialising in autism spectrum and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I have been using scientific approaches to help people understand their experiences and processing patterns for more than twenty years. I help families who have diagnostic questions, who want more information on individuals’ psychological strengths and needs, or who want to use psychological models in developing strategies and plans for the future.
