Psychologist and Therapy in Kent
We offer a range of assessments and therapy in Kent for individuals in need
Therapy for Children and Young People
As parents, we all hope our children grow up happy, confident and able to build meaningful relationships while overcoming life’s challenges. At times, however, children and young people may struggle with anxiety, low mood, trauma or difficulties at school or in social situations. At Oasis Psychological Services, we offer child therapy in Kent to provide support for children and families facing these challenges. Our experienced clinicians work closely with parents and carers to understand each child’s needs and develop personalised therapeutic approaches. Through a safe, supportive environment, our child therapy in Kent aims to help young people build coping strategies, improve emotional wellbeing, and feel understood every step of the way.
ADHD Assessments for Children and Adults
Navigating an ADHD assessment can feel overwhelming for both families and individuals, whether concerns arise in childhood or later in life. At Oasis Psychological Services, we offer child ADHD assessment services and private ADHD assessment options for adults, providing support from initial referral through to feedback and recommendations. Our clinicians work to ensure children and adults feel understood, while parents and individuals gain clear insight into how ADHD traits affect everyday life.
A child ADHD assessment explores attention, activity levels, emotional regulation, and functioning across home and school, with parents and carers closely involved throughout. For adults, a private ADHD assessment looks at developmental history, current challenges, and the impact of ADHD on work, relationships, and wellbeing. All ADHD assessments follow NICE guidelines and use recognised diagnostic tools accepted by schools and the NHS, offering clarity and practical direction.
Autism Assessments for Children and Adults
Considering an autism assessment often begins with a desire for understanding and reassurance, whether for a child or an adult. We provide child autism assessment services and adult autism assessment options in Kent, supporting families and individuals at every stage of the process. Our approach is person centred and neuroaffirming, focusing on lived experience, strengths, and areas of difficulty rather than labels alone.
A child autism assessment explores communication, social experience, sensory needs, and emotional wellbeing across home and education settings, with close collaboration from families and schools. An adult autism assessment provides a structured and supportive space to reflect on lifelong patterns, masking, and daily demands. All autism assessments are NICE-compliant and use gold-standard methods recognised by the NHS, helping individuals and families move forward with confidence.

Training sessions cover evidence-based approaches for neurodevelopmental conditions, mental health assessment, therapeutic interventions and complex case management. Delivered by experienced clinicians, the training focuses on practical techniques alongside theoretical understanding to improve confidence and effectiveness in professional practice. We also offer bespoke training for teams and organisations to ensure tailored support. Our aim is to equip clinicians with the expertise and tools to provide high-quality care for clients across all age groups.

Testimonials
I have been treated by Floriana for nearly 4 years and I can honestly say that out of all the mental health professionals that I have visited, she is the only one who has consistently and effectively helped me through the difficult times. I went to her with crippling social anxiety and left with a completely re-wired brain. I had her support during my lowest times and she was the one to diagnose me with ASD which has completely changed me for the better.
I finally feel that I can move on with my life with the appropriate support and I know that I now have a better skill set to deal with psychological issues than most other people my age. She has a gift at helping people get better whilst respecting their privacy and autonomy which I find absolutely essential.
She is the only professional that has given me the right to control my own situation allowing me to trust her much more than I've trusted any other doctor and for that, I'd like to say thank you.
A.B. (Aged 16)
Dr Floriana Reinikis has been a ‘lifeline’ in helping to support my teenage son at a point in his life when no one else was able or had the skills to help him with his extreme anxiety, lack of self-esteem and social communication difficulties. Floriana has tuned into my son's needs and built up a trusting rapport with him over the past year through her dedicated programme of CBT to help him better understand and deal with the challenges he faces on a daily basis.
I would not hesitate to recommend Floriana to anyone who needs specialist support for themselves or a loved one in dealing with how their thoughts, feelings and behaviours may negatively impact upon their daily lives.
I’m glad to say that through exploring his difficulties my son and our family have acquired a deeper understanding of the underlying complexities surrounding anxiety and thanks to Floriana we are all finally moving positively forwards together.
(Mrs Z)
My Daughter has been suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, low mood and chronic pain resulting in her being unable to leave the house. Despite numerous trips to doctors, specialists, consultants, clinical psychologists absolutely nothing made any difference.
I was recommended Floriana Reinikis through a mutual contact and my daughter has been seeing her for around 3 months. She has made significant improvements and although we are not completely out of the woods, we feel positive and hopeful for the future. I cannot recommend Floriana highly enough, she has changed our lives and my Daughter is happier and functioning better than she has in a very long time.
(Mrs C)
I have worked with Dr Reinikis for over two years, originally in her roll at CAHMS and luckily now as our school Clinical Phycologist. In that time we have called upon her expertise for a wide range on needs, being experienced by our student population.
From long term school refusal to staff training on how to work with individual needs i.e. ASD. Her flexibility and ‘can do’ attitude has made her an invaluable member of our team, be it as completing direct work 1:1 with student’s, or advising staff on how best approach parents, students or colleagues alike.
