Dr Rachel V. Gow’s Private Consultancy

Book an appointment for 2018 and receive free NEOM Organic Oils goody bags!

Gooseberry Bush private consultancyAs a qualified Child Neuropsychologist working in the field of nutritional neuroscience, I know perhaps better than most just how challenging and overwhelming parenting a child with ADHD or other neurodiverse condition can be.

My private consultancy, based at the Gooseberry Bush Centre in Wimbledon*, provides a specialist service to families with children and/or individuals affected by learning and behavioural differences including ADHD, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Anxiety and Dyslexia.

My private consultancy can help in the following areas:
  • Support through the initial evaluation and diagnostic process.
  • Detailed assessments of your child’s specific learning and behavioural differences (with input from qualified professionals) and reports which can be used as evidence in tribunals and elsewhere.
  • Classroom observations.
  • Guidance and support to obtain an EHCP’s.
  • Navigation through the education system, professional liaison with teachers, head teachers, education authorities and other professionals.
  • Nutritional expertise in relation to child, adolescent and adult mental-health and specifically ADHD and ASD.
  • Assessment for nutritional insufficiencies, advice on brain-selective nutrients which have been found to positively enhance attention networks, cognition and mood and better assist in symptom management. As well as food allergies and intolerances NB: This would require travel to another clinic in London and a blood test.
  • Personalized diet plans. Omega-3 index testing. Advice on nutritional supplements.
  • Evaluation for food allergy and intolerances.
  • Personal mentoring, life-coach service to facilitate achievement of personal and professional goals.
  • The implementation of positive behaviour management techniques.
  • Mentoring and sports-coaching for children.
The first two people who book appointments with me for 2018 will receive a goody bag from NEOM Organic Oils, containing two each of the following: Pillow Mist, Hand-Balm and bath and shower drops. All designed to help relax, soothe and prepare for sleep!
Contact me via my website to book a session.
Let’s make an amazing start to 2018 by focusing on implementing a healthier lifestyle, with a daily intake of nutrients which will improve your brain and nourish your mind! Thank you all so much for your support to date, wishing everyone:
A Prosperous and Peaceful New Year!
