Katherine Kerimofski

I am a Registered Psychologist, Board-approved Supervisor and Doctoral Candidate.

I love Psychology. Like, I really love it. My absolute favourite part is bringing diagnostic clarity to clients and linking them in with the right supports for them.

I provide a safe space for you to explore your child’s neurotype and work from a neuro-affirming approach, meaning that I see Autism and ADHD as natural differences in brain types.  I work in person in Perth, WA with children and young people to help families understand their child’s neurotype.  I also assess for ADHD and Autism in adults Australia-wide via Telehealth.

I am kind, caring and direct. I often use humour with my clients and can be sarcastic at times.

My approach is neuro-affirming which means I embrace different neurotypes and encourage you to be your authentic self. I am familiar with the frustrations and elations diagnosis can bring.  I have worked in private practice, in multidisciplinary teams and in schools.  Reports are written with schools in mind — they are clear, strengths-based, and include targeted recommendations for classroom adjustments, access to learning supports, and funding applications (e.g., NDIS, Schools Plus).

ADHD and Autism assessments for kids and teens

I work with families of children aged 6 to 17 who are questioning if their child might be Autistic, ADHD or both. What even is the difference anyway? I have a special interest in high-masking and internalised presentations.

ADHD and Autism assessments for adults

You’ve been thinking about it for a while. But then you get side tracked. Then you think about it again, google it and then get side tracked (again!) You are finally for real this time going to actually definitely do it. You are going to see if you are neurodivergent. Is it just ADHD or could it be Autism? OR BOTH?! What even is the difference anyway?

Cognitive or learning assessments

If you are interested in cognitive or learning assessments, this can be discussed and arranged in your interview. These are face-to-face assessments and available for Perth clients only.
