Marianne Diab

Marianne Diab is a Senior Neuropsychologist with over 18 years of experience supporting children and young people across hospital, school, and private practice settings in Dubai.

Marianne is passionate about helping children feel understood, valued, and supported for who they are. She specialises in the assessment of neurodevelopmental differences, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, learning difficulties, and giftedness, taking a strengths-based and neuroaffirming approach to every assessment.

She believes that understanding a child is about more than a diagnosis. Marianne takes the time to understand each child’s unique strengths, challenges, personality, and environment, and works closely with families, educators, and multidisciplinary teams to turn assessment findings into practical support that can make a meaningful difference in everyday life.

Alongside her clinical work, Marianne is a passionate advocate for neurodiversity and inclusion. She regularly delivers talks and school training, helping parents, educators, and wider communities develop a deeper understanding of neurodivergence and create environments where every child can feel a genuine sense of belonging.
