Autism Support in London

Harley Therapy helps autistic children and adults reach their potential. We offer ongoing therapy and support for adults, children and the families of those who have received a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We also offer autism assessments for adults looking for a diagnosis.

Counselling support for autistic children and teenagers

Receiving a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can bring both relief at finally understanding your child's struggles, as well as overwhelm at what now lies ahead.

Each autistic child will have a range of unique strengths and challenges that may require support or adjustments to help them. It's now also understood that autism in girls can present differently than in boys. 

Post-diagnostic counselling support helps you to understand the areas your autistic child needs help with, while also developing your child's strengths and confidence.  

The Harley Therapy approach to autistic child and teen support

The autism experts at Harley Therapy recognise that you and your family are unique. They will provide clear, compassionate guidance to help your child, and support you as parents to navigate your child or teenager’s diagnosis and what this means for your family.

Autism is a lifelong neurological difference. The right support can help your autistic child lead a life where they flourish with the skills to do things to the best of their ability- in childhood and beyond.

Counselling support for autistic adults

Harley Therapy’s specialised therapists offer therapy and support for adults with an ASD diagnosis with necessary adaptations for neurodivergent individuals. 

Counselling is a recommended intervention for autistic adults, particularly when an individual with autism also has another mental health issue, such as depression or anxiety. 

If you have not received an autism diagnosis and you are looking for an assessment with a professional psychiatrist, read about the adult autism assessment.

• anxiety

• attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).  

Support for parents with autistic children

It is important to have a strong support network for both the child and parent after an autism diagnosis. 

Harley Therapy offers individual counselling and couples counselling for parents and caregivers of autistic people. This can help with: 

• education-targeted parenting skills 
• stress management tools 
• help with family communication and conflict
• identity support (maintaing your life outside of 'mum/dad')
• and a safe, non-judgemental space to unload thoughts and feelings.
