Therapy & support

What we can help with

Our team offers a safe, understanding space where you can explore challenges, build confidence, and find strategies that work for you. We can support with:

  • Anxiety, stress, low mood and social exhaustion - learning ways to manage and feel more at ease
  • Understanding yourself - exploring identity and strengths
  • Practical strategies - routines, organisation, managing social and sensory sensitivities
  • Self-esteem and resilience - building confidence and coping with everyday life
  • Life transitions - starting secondary school, college or university, beginning a new job, or navigating relationships
  • Support for families and carers - helping those around you understand and support your needs

Our approach

We use therapeutic methods that are adapted for neurodivergent people, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) - practical tools for managing thoughts, feelings and behaviours
  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) - focusing on what matters most to you while building skills to handle challenges
  • Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) - encouraging self-kindness and reducing self-criticism
  • Trauma-informed practice - ensuring a safe, supportive space for anyone with difficult past experiences

We make sure every session is:

  • Warm and person-centred - starting with what matters most to you
  • Neuroaffirmative - celebrating differences and focusing on strengths
  • Tailored to you - adapted to fit your needs, goals and comfort level
  • Flexible - available in our Whitstable clinic or online

What our clients say

I was nervous before my assessment, but within minutes I was made to feel at ease. My questions were answered quickly and the report was in-depth. A very positive experience—I’d definitely recommend Autism Kent.

The team at Autism Kent were welcoming and thorough. Dr Robb’s warm, empathetic approach created a safe space for our daughter during her ADHD assessment. We highly recommend her.

Immensely grateful for the support and guidance I received from Autism Kent. From the moment we reached out to them, their professionalism and expertise were evident. The team made the diagnostic process manageable, listened to our concerns, and gave invaluable insights into our daughter's needs.

Can't thank Autism Kent enough for the positive impact they've had on our lives. If you're seeking assistance for diagnosis or support, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to them. Their dedication to helping families like mine is truly remarkable.

We can highly recommend Dr Robb and her team at Autism Kent. We were guided through the process of ascertaining a diagnosis for our teenage son. The interviews and questions were professionally delivered but in a very gentle and kind manner to ameliorate stress for him and for us as parents.

Waited years for an assessment. It was easy, straightforward, and Isobel was lovely. Getting this diagnosis has helped me get the support I need—thank you.

Excellent service—professional, empathetic, and tailored perfectly to my needs. I was made to feel at ease throughout, with fantastic communication and feedback.
