Dr Laura Bennett Clinical Neuropsychology
About Dr Bennett's Work
Please note. Dr Bennett is not taking referrals for therapy work in 2024.
My training as a Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Neuropsychologist has equipped me with advanced skills in assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning and intervention work. I typically draw upon neuroscience during my day-to-day work to assess and treat individuals with brain conditions that affect thinking (memory, learning, attention, language, reading, problem-solving and decision-making), emotions and behaviour, or to provide diagnostic clarification for treatment planning. I work with individuals across the lifespan (children, teenagers, and adults).
I am passionate about trauma and neurodiversity, and have extensive experience working with both conditions, as well as their co-occurring conditions. I have a particular interest in how the expression of these conditions differ across genders.
In addition to my work at the hospital, I have also recently developed an ADHD Community of Practice on the Sunshine Coast, in collaboration with my highly skilled and wonderfully unique colleague, Ange Nennie (ADHD & Executive Function Coach).
When not at work, I spend most of my time with my husband, two young children (aged 3 and 5), and dogs - playing in the garden, reading books, crashing monster trucks, and singing along to Disney movies.
