With a background spanning mental health and women’s health, she has developed a particular focus on ADHD in adult women, a group she feels has historically been under-recognised and underserved.
For Kay, an ADHD assessment is never just a checklist. She is interested in the whole person, including their history, relationships, long-standing patterns, and the strengths that often sit alongside the challenges. She creates space for patients to tell their story fully, and many describe her consultations as the first time they have felt genuinely listened to.
Her interests include supporting mothers and high-functioning women navigating a new ADHD diagnosis, culturally sensitive and person-centred care, and emotional regulation, anxiety and depression, particularly in the postnatal period.
