Dr Anna Hurley is a paediatric neuropsychologist based in London, providing cognitive assessments for children with neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions.

About Me:

I am a Paediatric Neuropsychologist and Clinical Psychologist with 15 years of experience working with children and families in the NHS.

I have an independent practice which is based in Central London (Wimpole Street), where I offer a range of psychological services, including:

• Cognitive, academic and neuropsychological assessments to identify areas of strength and weakness. This includes assessing: IQ, attention, memory, executive functioning, educational/academic attainments. I offer assessments for specific learning difficulties, such as dyslexia. I also provide cognitive/neuropsychological testing as part of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) assessments when requested by a psychiatrist or paediatrician.
• Assessment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I offer private ASD assessments which are undertaken jointly with colleagues specialising in neurodevelopmental conditions. I am fully trained and experienced in diagnosing social communication disorders using gold-standard assessments such as the ADOS and diagnostic interview scales.
• Medico-legal assessments for the court (neuropsychological evaluations).
