Autism Anglia Clinical Psychology Department is a developing service which can offer input to all clients within Doucecroft School, the FE Department, Adult Residential Services and Community Support.

The team, consisting of one part-time Clinical Psychologist, two full-time assistants and one part-time trainee are looking to expand further during the spring. As well as completing baseline assessments of sensory perception and behaviours, they accept referrals for specific consultations, individual assessments and treatment as appropriate.

The team offer in-house training courses to staff working for Autism Anglia on a range of issues, for example Asperger’s Syndrome, sexuality and challenging behaviour, and can deliver BILD (British Institute of Learning Difficulties) training courses.

Our lead clinician has affiliations with UEA (University of East Anglia) and Essex University Clinical Psychology Doctoral programmes and is an Honorary Research Associate of the Learning Disabilities Research Group at Cambridge University.
