Most people have heard of Autism and ADHD, but few understand what it means for the whole person.

ADHD is more than being “distractible” — it shows up in how quickly you process information, how much you can hold in your mind at once, and how well you can plan, initiate, sequence, and complete tasks. A quick questionnaire-based ‘ADHD screening’ can’t give you that. Real data can.

Autism has a ‘spiky profile,’ meaning there are inherent strengths and weaknesses. Autism & ADHD rarely exist in isolation; they are a whole MindBody dynamic (often co-occurring) that need to be understood so energy & wellbeing can be harnessed.

If you’ve spent your life ‘flying under the radar,’ navigating your way through life in a world that doesn’t feel designed or set up for you, while your nervous system hummed in the background—welcome. You’ve found a soft place to fall, informed by lived experience.

“Being with the mind is not enough; we must work with it as well. The mind is grounded in the brain which is a physical system that does not change for the better on its own. Weeds don’t get pulled and flowers don’t get planted simply by watching the garden.”

A Crucible for Self-Realisation & Neurodivergent Maturation

Vicki-Lee Alomes
Psychologist

Informed by lived experience, being a neurodiversity-affirming practitioner means I am deeply committed to partnering with you to understand, respect, and honour your unique internal blueprint. I will always protect your right to unlearn the exhausting demand of masking (often non-conscious coping mechanisms) to make others comfortable, and I recognise that your sensory, cognitive, and processing differences are inherent aspects of who you are.

However, true well-being requires us to look at the whole picture. A comprehensive neuroaffirming framework does not just ask the world to accommodate our needs; it also empowers us to examine how our behavioural patterns impact the people we love and the communities we occupy. Our neurodevelopmental profile explains why we experience the world differently, but it does not absolve us of our agency or our responsibility for how we treat ourselves and others. In my practice, we create a safe space to explore both your neurodivergent traits and your areas of personal growth. This means we will compassionately support your nervous system while gently and honestly confronting patterns of communication, emotional volatility, or relational defences that may be keeping you stuck or creating friction in your life. I am here to support not just your self-validation, but your character maturation and relational integrity fortified by self-respect.

“Many clinicians have the same negative perceptions about Autism as the rest of society – they envisage adult Autism as someone wearing a suit jacket and lime green sweatpants, rocking back and forth espousing mathematical equations, only breaking their hollow gaze to bark at a passing train.”

– Terra Vance

To provide the highest level of clinical energy to my clients, I don't offer introductory calls. I have designed this website to help you decide if we are a good fit. To maintain an uncompromised focus, my practice is dedicated exclusively to adults. I do not work with children, parents, schools, or NDIS plan-managed pathways. I choose to dedicate my clinical capacity entirely to supporting adults with their self-understanding and personal evolution.

My practice addresses the systemic lack of targeted psychological support for late-diagnosed neurodivergent adults, and those wondering if their lifelong experiences might be explained by Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD. My focus is deeply purposeful: guiding adults through a process of rigorous clinical discernment toward a clear, validated realisation of their authentic blueprint, while inviting them into a parallel journey of deep character growth, relational integrity, and honest self-confrontation.

From outdated stereotypes of male-only, robotic characters in media to public portrayals that can feel deeply infantilising, there is a severe lack of authentic representation for nuanced neurodivergence. Sir Anthony Hopkins is an Autistic adult, yet few people realise how broad and varied the presentation can be. Media representation of Autistic women remains exceptionally rare, and if you do not relate to specific public trends or subcultural styles, it is easy to find the current public narrative unrelatable. Is it any wonder so many push their questioning aside and second-guess their need for support? This pattern of self-doubt is a deeply familiar experience for those navigating professional and social spaces where subtle or highly masked traits are minimised.

Many who mask effectively (via mostly nonconscious coping mechanisms) do not present with the overt traits traditionally looked for in early childhood screenings. Generations of individuals, particularly females, remain missed or misdiagnosed because early tools relied on a rigid, male-centric checklist. Contemporary, evidence-based protocols are better designed to detect this nuanced, personalised presentation. If you have a similar story, your curiosity and need for objective clarity are completely valid. However, understanding your brain and nervous system is only the first step. True self-awareness requires that we not use a clinical profile as a shield against personal responsibility. Instead, we use it as a foundational manual to actively work through interpersonal patterns, defensive habits, and the protective strategies that stall our personal growth.

A massive cohort of adult Australians with an Autistic internalised or an ADHD inattentive presentation spent their childhoods completely missed, masking heavily until adulthood. They were the quiet, compliant, or anxious students whose masking was mistaken for a total absence of support needs. These presentations are known as The Invisible Spectrum.

My framework is designed for those ready to look at the whole picture, balancing radical self-compassion for your natural biology with a strong commitment to character maturation. Please note that while many neurodivergent individuals present with intersecting challenges such as eating disorders, complex personality presentations, gender dysphoria, or severe addiction, these specific clinical complexities fall outside my current focus. In these instances, a shared-care arrangement or an external referral to a professional will be prioritised to ensure you receive the safest, most comprehensive care.
