Assessment

Individualised assessments including:

  • ADHD assessment*

  • Cognitive assessment (e.g. to assess giftedness, intellectual disability)

  • Learning assessment (e.g. to assess specific learning disorder, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia)

Fees for assessments vary based on individual circumstances. Please contact us to discuss your assessment needs and obtain a quote.

*If you are interested in trying ADHD medication, it can often be more cost effective to see a paediatrician or psychiatrist for an ADHD diagnosis, but we are happy to discuss your needs.

If you require a different type of assessment that is not listed above, get in touch and we will confirm whether we have capacity to assist you.

Training and Support

Learning to use psychometric assessment tools can be daunting for many students and provisional psychologists.

We offer in-person training and support to help you feel confident in administering and interpreting common tools such as the WAIS, WISC and WIAT.

Participants must meet minimum qualification requirements to access these tools.

Classes can be provided individually, or in group sessions to help reduce the cost to each participant.
