About
I am Jordi Hernandez i Del Olmo, a registered General Health Psychologist (no. 35760). I do individual therapy with adults, whatever brings them. My specialism is autism, ADHD and AuDHD profiles, and many of the people I work with arrive late-diagnosed or still undiagnosed.
Training and background
My path in psychology grew from a curiosity about how the human mind works — particularly in people whose way of processing the world differs from the statistical norm. I've combined clinical training with academic research, which allows me to offer a perspective grounded in up-to-date scientific evidence.
Specialisation
I work with adults in individual therapy. My specialism is the assessment and support of people with autism, ADHD and AuDHD profiles (the co-occurrence of both conditions), both at the diagnostic stage and in the later work of self-understanding and building strategies that fit. I also support families who want to understand a neurodivergent relative better. And if you are coming for something else, we can work on that too: specialising does not mean it is all I do.
My approach
I work from a neuroaffirming, integrative model: autism and ADHD are not illnesses to be cured but different ways of processing the world. I combine Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), adapting pace, format and communication to how each person actually works.
From the inside
I am autistic and I have ADHD. I mention it not as a credential but because it changes the conversation: I know what it is like to arrive at a therapy room after years of having to translate yourself. In session, you do not have to explain the basics.
