Kelly holds a Master’s Degree in Educational Psychology from South Africa. She has lived and worked in the UAE since 2001, initially as a teacher and school counsellor, and for the last 10 years, as an Educational Psychologist in private practice in Dubai.
At this time, Kelly’s work at Insights Psychology is centered around leading multidisciplinary neurodevelopmental assessments. While Kelly works mainly with school-aged children and young people, she also enjoys adult assessments. Kelly’s approach is client-centered and neuro-affirmative. She focuses on providing comprehensive, thorough assessments in close collaboration with students, families, and teachers. Kelly is motivated to support parents as they begin their journeys of discovering, understanding, and deepening their perspectives on the neurodivergences they may encounter through the assessment process. The range of neurodevelopmental and learning assessments that Kelly conducts include general and specific learning differences (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, intellectual developmental disorder), ADHD, and Autism.
