Spectrum.Life: PSI Chartered Psychologist (Clinical or Counselling)
PSI Chartered Psychologist (clinical or counselling)

Our HealthTech delivers digital transformation for Insurers, Educators and Employers through Co-creation or seamlessly integrated out-of-the-box solutions, that decrease digital fragmentation and engage, empower, and transform their people’s lives.
Established in 2018 by Stuart McGoldrick and Stephen Costello, Spectrum.Life provides services internationally to over 7.2m insurance members, 3,000 corporate clients, 60 universities and 650,000 university students. Spectrum.Life currently employs over 260 people, including over 125 clinicians.
Our vision is to change and save as many lives as possible.
Spectrum.Life’s Neurodiversity Service consists of a multidisciplinary team of qualified, accredited, knowledgeable, and experienced professionals who are passionate about supporting people to understand themselves and live happy, healthy, authentic, and meaningful lives.
Our neurodiversity team continually strives to embody and develop neuro-affirming practice. We oppose the assumption that there is one ‘standard’ neurotype that exists and recognise that the population is neurodiverse. Neurotype (or brain type) variation is not only natural and inevitable but valuable (i.e. not a deficit). We recognise that the process of being neurodiversity affirming is an ongoing journey with no fixed end point, and one which requires constant action, learning, engagement, and commitment. We continually evaluate our practice through critical reflection and active seeking of feedback, and challenge neuro-normative thinking at every opportunity.
