Kelly is an endorsed Clinical Neuropsychologist with over 10 years’ experience in the assessment of children and adolescents. She holds a Master of Clinical Neuropsychology from Macquarie University and a Bachelor of Psychology with First Class Honours from the University of Sydney. Kelly also holds a permanent clinical appointment within the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network in a specialist diagnostic and assessment unit.

Kelly’s expertise includes the assessment of intellectual disability, global developmental delay, learning disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). She has published research in peer-reviewed journals and regularly presents to paediatricians, psychiatrists, psychologists and allied health professionals on neurodevelopmental assessment. She is a member of the Clinical Advisory Group for the revision of the Australian FASD Diagnostic Guide and sits on the steering group of FASDAR, the Australian FASD Registry.

Kelly is passionate about providing thoughtful, evidence-based assessments that help families understand their child’s unique strengths and challenges. Her goal is to translate assessment findings into practical insights that support children’s learning, development and social-emotional wellbeing.

Outside of work, Kelly enjoys yoga, bushwalking and spending time with her two young children — although these days, bushwalking involves considerably more stopping to snack than walking.
