Dr Stephanie Ferguson

Dr Stephanie is a specialist general practitioner with a focus on mental health and ADHD, and a special focus on supporting women navigating neurodivergence across all stages of life. She is passionate about helping patients understand their diagnosis and feel genuinely heard - particularly those who have spent years feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or overlooked by a healthcare system that historically underrecognised ADHD in women.
 

Some of her patients are professionals, executives, and high achievers who have spent years developing elaborate systems to keep up, only to find those systems eventually stop working

​

Her areas of interest include:
• ADHD in women and girls - including late diagnosis in adulthood
• High-functioning and late-identified ADHD in professionals
• Perimenopause and its interaction with ADHD and mental health
• Autism, anxiety and depression in the context of neurodivergence

Patients appreciate her warm, unhurried approach and her ability to translate complex clinical concepts into clear, actionable guidance. Many of her patients describe finally feeling like someone truly understood what they had been living with.

​

Dr Stephanie's approach is evidence-based and collaborative. She takes time to understand each patient's history, life context, and goals - and works closely with psychologists, psychiatrists, and other providers to ensure coordinated, whole-person care.

​

She completed her medical training at Griffith University in 2015. She spent her junior doctor years at Redcliffe Hospital before completing her FRACGP in 2020 in Brisbane.

​

Dr Stephanie welcomes patients seeking a thorough, compassionate assessment and is committed to empowering patients to be active participants in their own treatment.
