Lyla Schwartz
Psychologist (FSP-anerkannt) and SGfB Counselor
I offer neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed assessment for ADHD, autism, and commonly co-occurring conditions in adults and adolescents, with particular attention to late-identified and previously-masked presentations. Drawing on more than a decade of work in complex trauma, I focus on how trauma, anxiety, and neurodivergence can overlap or be mistaken for one another — a distinction that matters for an accurate diagnosis and genuinely useful recommendations. I work in a calm, collaborative, and unhurried way, and provide culturally responsive assessment for expat, migrant, refugee, and multilingual clients. Alongside diagnostic assessment, I am building NSNS’s capability further along the continuum toward broader neurological and neuropsychological testing, so clients can access a fuller neurocognitive picture over time.
