Children, young people and students depending on commission
Psychology Direct is listed for educational psychology support in Derry/Londonderry and the wider Derry/Londonderry, Strabane and wider Northern Ireland area. When a child is struggling with learning, literacy, attention, anxiety or SEMH — or with the everyday demands of autism or ADHD — understanding what's really getting in the way at school is often the first step that changes things.
For Derry/Londonderry, the local context matters: Northern Ireland SEN support and Education Authority pathways. Derry/Londonderry families often need local and online options because private capacity can be thin.
It's worth confirming the details that decide whether this is the right fit: current availability, fees, how the assessment is run, that the psychologist is HCPC registered, and whether the report will stand up where you need it — school planning, SEND/ASN/ALN/SEN processes or tribunal evidence.
