ABOUT ME
Welcome to NeuroKind London
A website created to support neurodiverse familiesand educators.
Meet the Founder
Hello, I'm Halina Kaur Sekhon, Founder and Director of NeuroKind London.
With over 11 years of experience working within Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), I have dedicated my career to supporting neurodivergent children and young people to feel understood, valued, and empowered to thrive.
Throughout my work, I have supported children and young people with a wide range of needs, including autism, ADHD, social communication differences, sensory processing needs, learning difficulties, and social, emotional, and mental health challenges. I have worked closely with schools, families, and multidisciplinary professionals to develop personalised strategies that support children both academically and emotionally.
I am passionate about creating environments where children can be themselves, develop confidence in their strengths, and access the support they need to flourish.
A Little Personal Note:
I’m a Virgo, which probably explains my love for organisation, planning, and creating structured support systems that help children succeed.
Professional Experience & Qualifications
I hold a Master of Science (MSc) in Psychological and Psychiatric Anthropology and a Bachelor of Arts (BA Hons) in Criminal Justice.
In addition, I am a qualified Neurodevelopmental Practitioner and an ADOS-2 Trained Practitioner, with specialist knowledge of autism, ADHD, neurodevelopmental assessment, and neuro-affirming practice.
Alongside my role as Founder of NeuroKind London, I am a valued member of the team at Mindscape London, where I support individuals and families through the process of gaining an autism and/or ADHD diagnosis. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, I contribute to comprehensive neurodevelopmental assessments that are thorough, respectful, and person-centred.
I understand that seeking a diagnosis can sometimes feel overwhelming, emotional, or uncertain. My aim is always to make the process feel supportive, clear, and empowering, ensuring that individuals and families feel heard, validated, and understood every step of the way.

Why I Started NeuroKind London
NeuroKind London was born from my belief that every child deserves to be understood, celebrated, and supported in a way that recognises their unique strengths.
Throughout my career, I have seen first-hand how many neurodivergent children and young people struggle in environments that were not designed with their needs in mind. I also witnessed the incredible transformation that can happen when children feel safe, accepted, and empowered to learn in ways that work for them.
I wanted to create something different—a service built on compassion, understanding, creativity, and genuine partnership with families and schools.
NeuroKind London brings together my passion for neurodiversity, wellbeing, education, and inclusion. Through specialist consultancy, therapeutic interventions, staff training, educational resources, NeuroKind Stables™, and the NeuroKind Navigators™ series, my goal is to help create environments where neurodivergent children and young people can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
At the heart of everything I do is a commitment to neuro-affirming practice and the belief that differences should not simply be accommodated—they should be understood, respected, and celebrated.
Creating spaces where every neurotype can thrive.
A Personal Perspective
Being a mum to a young daughter gives me a personal perspective on the importance of emotional wellbeing, belonging, and support. I understand the hopes and concerns that parents carry, and this perspective shapes the compassionate approach at the heart of NeuroKind London.
Family, kindness, and emotional wellbeing guide everything I do.
My mission is simple:
To help neurodivergent children feel confident in who they are, support schools in meeting diverse needs, and empower families with the knowledge and tools to help their children flourish.
