About

I’m Anissa Loades, a registered psychologist and founder of Attuned Family Psychology. I support children, adolescents, adults and families navigating neurodiversity, emotional wellbeing, and the complexities of family relationships. Over the past 15 years I have helped many neurodivergent individuals and families, particularly those impacted by ADHD. Alongside this, I have spent the last 12 years working within a community and child protection agency supporting families experiencing complex trauma.

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based, and systemic practice. I understand emotional wellbeing as something that develops within relationships, shaped by our environments and our capacity to make sense of, and regulate our experiences.

In addition to therapy, I offer ADHD assessment, diagnosis, and executive functioning support, with a focus on building practical strategies that support day-to-day life.
