A Clinical Psychology Practice Grounded in Relationships
Lingmell Psychology provides trauma‑informed, neuro‑affirming and capacity‑building Clinical Psychology services for families, individuals and organisations in Bristol, across the UK and online.
We support parents and caregivers of children experiencing Autism, Neurodivergence, Learning Disability and other Special educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), as well as professionals working in broader trauma‑exposed roles across education, mental health, homelessness and learning disability services.
Our work is grounded in thoughtful, nurturing relationships that strengthen the wellbeing of those who care for and support others.
