Anne-Marie Gallagher

My assessment with Anne-Marie was much less daunting than I thought it would be. She made me feel at ease (even though we did it over zoom) and I felt like I had been listened to! I would highly recommend her if you are thinking of getting an assessment.

I found Anne Marie to be a lovely compassionate person. I was a little apprehensive at the beginning of the assessment and she very quickly put me at ease. The way in which she explained things to me made perfect sense. I was slightly in denial as to whether or not I had any form of Autism, but by the end of the assessment and the way in which Anne Marie explained the behaviours I understood and was happy that the diagnosis was correct. She did not make me feel inadequate or silly at any point and went to the trouble to make sure that I was happy and understood all of the relevant points. I found her very quick in responding and generous with her time.

Anne Marie is the only person running this company. She is very professional and compassionate. I picked her due to her 25 years experience and unlike other bigger companies I wanted the service from her and not just anyone in a bigger company. I was advised to undertake an assessment as a very successful manager of people. I now know why I am so good at work. I am autistic and so function really well in engineering. I now also know how to be a better manager and how to be better in all relationships and it has totally changed the way I think about myself and massively reduced frustration. She explains everything you actually need to know when going through the assessment, if you are autistic you then know all the important stuff. With a diagnosis you can then get further support from HR at your work or various charities. It's the best investment I have ever made I think. I wish I did it earlier than 38!

Anne Marie was excellent at making the process of getting a formal diagnosis clear, and in guiding me through it at each step of the way. The process was extremely quick and smooth, and I now have a much better sense of self-understanding as well as the more practical benefit of a formal diagnosis. I would highly recommend pursuing a diagnosis with the support of Anne Marie.

I contacted Anne Marie after a couple of years of wondering if I might have Asperger's Syndrome. A few people had said to me that they thought I might have, but others disagreed so I decided that it would be good to speak to an expert about it. Having researched adult autism clinicians I picked Anne Marie as she has such a lot of experience diagnosing female adults. I also appreciated the clarity of the diagnostic process, and fees, on her website. She's extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly and relaxed. There was no pressure at any point to take the next step, but when I did decide to it got underway promptly. As other reviewers have mentioned she doesn't make you wait to hear her assessment, and this is great. It's been a remarkable process, so easy but so revealing and enlightening. Thanks Anne Marie!
