Puva Kurusamy

Registered Psychologist

Puva is a registered psychologist with a deep commitment to neurodiversity-affirming practice. She has a special interest in comprehensive assessments for autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning differences across the lifespan.

​

Puva brings rare depth to her dyslexia and learning differences work, with a background spanning specialist literacy intervention, curriculum development, and research into evidence-based teaching approaches. This foundation means she understands learning differences not just as diagnostic categories, but as lived experiences — and her recommendations are practical, meaningful, and grounded in what actually works.

 

Her assessment approach is strengths-based and affirming, moving beyond traditional frameworks to honour each person's unique neurological profile. She is passionate about supporting high-masking neurodivergent individuals whose differences may have gone unrecognised, and creates a warm space where every person feels genuinely seen and valued.
