WELCOME
Beacon Psychology was founded by Dr Alexandra Sewell, an Educational and Child Psychologist, academic, and author with over 15 years’ experience across applied psychology, research, and child development.
The practice was created to bring research-led psychology into neuroaffirming, family-focused services that provide clarity and meaningful change.
Across assessment, consultation, and support, Beacon combines psychological rigour with a compassionate, individualised approach. This supports families, professionals, and organisations to make sense of complexity and identify practical next steps that create meaningful change.
