Whether you're seeking clarity around a possible diagnosis, guidance for school or work, or evidence for an NDIS application, we provide a thorough, respectful process with practical outcomes.

A clinical interview to understand current concerns, developmental history and daily functioning. This helps us tailor the assessment to the individual's needs.
Standardised testing and structured activities conducted across one or more sessions. May include questionnaires, cognitive measures, observation tasks and information from parents, teachers or the workplace.

Assessment fees vary depending on the type and complexity of assessment. NDIS self-managed and plan-managed participants are welcome. DVA referrals are also accepted. We'll walk you through costs clearly before anything is booked.
An MHCP is not required to book an assessment. However, a GP referral may support a Medicare rebate for some parts of the process.
The number of sessions varies depending on the type of assessment. Autism and ADHD assessments are typically completed across 1–2 sessions. Psycho-educational assessments generally require 2–4 sessions depending on the scope of testing required. Your psychologist will discuss the expected process with you at the initial consultation.
In most cases, a parent or caregiver will need to be present — particularly for younger children. This can be flexible depending on age and circumstances, and some background information can be gathered via questionnaire or Telehealth. Please contact us to discuss your child's specific situation.
An assessment isn't just about a diagnosis — it's about understanding how someone thinks, learns and experiences the world, and what can help. Get in touch to find out more.
