Combined Autism & ADHD (AuDHD) Assessments

Autism and ADHD frequently overlap, and many people meet criteria for both. A combined assessment offers a clearer picture without repeating tests unnecessarily.

Our AuDHD assessments help:

– Reduce appointment fatigue
– Streamline the process
– Identify overlapping or contrasting traits
– Provide targeted, integrated recommendations

We adjust tools and processes to accommodate sensory, cognitive, or communication needs and ensure nothing is missed.

Cognitive Assessments

We offer cognitive assessments for both children and adults. These may explore:

– Learning differences (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia)
– Giftedness or twice-exceptionality
– Intellectual disability
– Educational planning and career readiness

These assessments help answer questions about learning style, strengths and challenges, and may support school accommodations, career planning, or further referrals.

Our Assessment Process

We aim to make the process supportive and clear from start to finish:

1. Intake Appointment – We discuss your history, concerns, and goals.
2. Testing Sessions – We use standardised, gold-standard tools suited to age and presentation.
3. Scoring & Interpretation – Our clinicians analyse results using DSM-5-TR criteria, observations, and real-life context.
4. Feedback & Report – You’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-understand report, along with a feedback session explaining your results, diagnosis (if applicable), and recommendations.

*Please note: Where a formal diagnosis is made (e.g., Autism or ADHD), a paediatrician or psychiatrist may also need to review the findings for medical confirmation.*

NDIS & Functional Capacity Assessments

While our diagnostic reports may support NDIS applications, they are not designed to assess functional capacity across the domains required by the NDIS.

Our standard Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD reports:

– Follow DSM-5-TR diagnostic criteria
– Confirm (or rule out) diagnosis
– Do not include detailed assessments of daily living, social functioning, or support needs as required by NDIS

If you are applying for the NDIS and require documentation that specifically addresses support needs across functional capacity domains, we recommend also booking an NDIS Access Request Assessment Report.

*A diagnostic report alone may not be sufficient for NDIS entry. We’re happy to guide you through this process.*

Who We Work With

We welcome clients of all ages, neurotypes, and backgrounds. You do not need a referral to access our assessments.

We regularly assess:

– Children (ages 4+)
– Teens and young adults
– Adults seeking clarity, diagnosis, or self-understanding
– Clients exploring NDIS or workplace accommodations

Fees & Rebates

Assessment costs vary depending on complexity and duration. We’ll provide a detailed quote before starting.

You may be eligible for:

– Medicare rebates (with referral for certain components)
– Private health rebates (check with your provider)
– NDIS funding (if Plan or Self Managed under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living)
