We can provide Psychological Assessments for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) & Autism, with comprehensive reports to either compliment your therapy journey with us, OR as a stand alone Diagnostic Report.
Diagnostic Process.
How do we assess & test for Autism & ADHD?
Both our ADHD and Autism assessments have been developed using best-practice guidelines.
Our assessment packages include an in-depth clinical interview, validated psychometric measures, and a comprehensive psychological report.
The comprehensive report includes a detailed overview of symptoms, a thorough description of test results, interpretations of the assessments, followed by practical, evidence based recommendations for the next steps, which are easy to adopt so that you may commence using them in order to make immediate improvements in the quality of your life.
