Loving our new Dublin clinic space and the fantastic opportunity it has given us to reach out to so many more individuals and families in need. Our fabulous multi-disciplinary team is ever expanding and includes specialists in psychology, psychiatry, speech and language therapy and occupational therapy … and of course we are supported by our very efficient centre coordinator who makes sure everything keeps running smoothly!As in our Dungannon Centre, we see both children and adults and offer diagnostic assessments in relation to autism, adhd, PDA, dyslexia, dyscalculia and so much more…. We are also working to expand our intervention and counselling sessions as well as offering individual and group SLT and Occupational Therapy. We are also keen to offer Play Therapy, so if you know of someone who might be interested in joining our team… we would love to hear from them! Thank you for all the interest we have had so far and for your continued support of our services both in Dublin and Dungannon! We are very much enjoying expanding our Spectrum Centre family! Jo Douglas 💕

Our Psychologist Jo Douglas spent a fabulous day training the SEN Masters students at St Mary’s College, Belfast discussing all things Autism and PDA! Thank you so much to Dr Craig Goodhall for this annual invite. It is wonderful that the issues related to anxiety and demand avoidance are being included at this level of study and it was a privilege to have the opportunity to work with such a group of enthusiastic and dedicated students!

Thank you Olivia and the team at Bellamianta & Iconic Bronze for supporting our charity Spectrum Women’s Autism Group (SWAG). We very much appreciate you having taken the time to share your knowledge and expertise in the use of beauty products and make up application! As a result of your makeup demonstrations the ladies all came away with increased confidence and some fabulous insider tips for obtaining that flawless makeup glow for a perfect day and nighttime look! As a result of social anxiety, many autistic women struggle to attend more mainstream fashion and beauty events, so having you attend our centre where our ladies feel comfortable and relaxed, was just fantastic! Thank you too for donating all the lovely Bellamianta products for our Goody Bags! The feedback has been fabulous and your warm, fun and sensitive approach to all attending has been applauded! So a big ‘Thank You’ from everyone here at SWAG! x
