Meet Our Team
Sarah Hampton
Founding Director of Autism Consultancy Services
I am a highly experienced Autistic Spectrum Disorder Consultant, Teacher and Trainer with over fifteen years of experience. I specialise in supporting children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in mainstream education environments. I studied Psychology at The University of Lincoln in the UK, specialising in intellectual disabilities and literacy for people with ASD (Autism), ADHD and Dyslexia. I also completed a Post Graduate Certificate of Education focused on disability and access to the curriculum through literacy programs.
My parents’ unconditional support during my neuro-diversity journey inspired me to dedicate my life to offering the same passionate advocacy to others. I look forward to helping your family with the same dedication they showed me.
Anita North
Lead Therapist
I began my professional education at Edith Cowan University in WA, gaining my psychology and education degrees. Later I completed a Bachelor of Social Science and a Master’s Degree in Education. I am proud to have been involved in the professional assessment and diagnosis of children since 2009.
I believe that long-lasting change comes through education and understanding, and I firmly believe that my role in ACS is to help families undertake this powerful journey. My passion is working closely with families, educational providers and other specialists to develop a cohesive support network around each child.

A Habit Coach is therapy assistant and part of a client’s therapy team. They work with a client and their supports to cement new skills they’ve learned in their therapy by implementing daily habits and routines.
The Habit Coach provided by ACS will accompany the client to their different therapists, map out the skills being taught by each therapist and create meaningful access to those skills across multiple environments.
