Psychological Assessment Process

Psychological assessments are conducted through a structured multi-step process designed to ensure an accurate and comprehensive evaluation.

The process typically includes:

• Initial consultation
• Developmental and clinical interview
• Standardised diagnostic questionnaires
• Collateral information when relevant
• Feedback session
• Written report if required

Types of Psychological Assessments

ADHD Assessment (Children, Adolescents & Adults)
Comprehensive assessment for individuals experiencing long-standing difficulties with attention, organisation, impulsivity or executive functioning. The assessment process helps clarify whether these difficulties are consistent with ADHD and provides guidance for appropriate support or treatment.

Autism Assessment & Diagnostic Clarification (Adolescents & Adults)
Structured clinical assessments to explore possible Autism Spectrum presentations or to provide broader diagnostic clarification when individuals have experienced long-standing social, behavioural or developmental differences.

Cognitive & Psychological Assessments (Children, Adolescents & Adults)
Broader psychological evaluations designed to clarify cognitive functioning, diagnostic questions or treatment planning where multiple factors may be influencing wellbeing, learning or work functioning.
