The
Effra Clinic

We understand that mental health, especially neurodevelopmental disorders, can have profound and enduring effects on individuals and their families. These conditions often persist throughout a person's lifetime, with symptoms and challenges presenting in varying ways across different stages of life. At our clinic, we take pride in being a pioneering life-span service that provides comprehensive care from early diagnosis in infancy to addressing work-related and relationship challenges in adulthood. By offering a life-span approach to care, we ensure continuity and consistency in addressing the evolving needs of individuals throughout their developmental journey. ​ At our clinic, we strive to create a compassionate and inclusive environment that acknowledges the unique strengths and challenges of each individual. We are committed to empowering individuals and their families to navigate the complexities of neurodevelopmental disorders and lead fulfilling lives across all stages of the life-span.

We provide our patients and their families with diagnostic and treatment approaches that have been validated and endorsed by the medical and psychological community, including the DSM-5, ICD-11, and NICE Guidelines. By adhering to these well-established guidelines, we ensure that our practices are evidence-based and in line with the latest advancements in the field. At our clinic, we understand the importance of staying up-to-date with scientific developments and best practices. We actively engage in ongoing research initiatives to continuously expand our knowledge and remain at the forefront of the field.

We firmly believe that exceptional care is provided by highly motivated and cohesive teams, comprising valued individuals who bring their unique expertise to the table. At our clinic, we carefully select the finest clinicians, many of whom we have personally collaborated with in the past, to join our team. We prioritize creating an environment where our staff feel appreciated, enabling them to deliver their best work. ​ Recognizing the significance of collaboration, we place great importance on regular clinical meetings and team discussions. These gatherings serve as platforms for sharing knowledge, exchanging insights, and fostering a collective approach to client care. By promoting open communication and the free flow of ideas, we ensure that our clients receive the highest standard of care that is informed by multiple perspectives and expertise.
