ADHD Assessment

Supporting Mental Health Through Comprehensive ADHD Assessments

An ADHD assessment in Melbourne may provide useful insight into difficulties with attention, focus and self-regulation. Whether you are seeking an assessment for yourself or a young person, the approach of our psychologists near Hampton is compassionate, neuro-affirming and tailored to the individual.

For some people, ADHD mainly affects attention, organisation and concentration. For others, restlessness, energy and impulsive behaviour may be more noticeable. Many people experience features of both patterns.

What to Expect During an ADHD Assessment

Our ADHD assessments for Hampton residents follow a structured and personalised process to help build a detailed picture of your experiences and support appropriate recommendations. This includes:

Multiple Assessment Appointments

Using more than one appointment allows us to gather a broader picture of the individual’s symptoms and circumstances.

Detailed Questionnaires

We use questionnaires completed by the individual and, when relevant, by parents and teachers to better understand how behaviours and experiences may vary across different environments.

Professional Report Writing

Following the assessment, a comprehensive report summarises the findings and provides clear recommendations for ongoing support.

Tools Utilised in an ADHD Assessment

We use validated diagnostic tools as part of our ADHD assessments to support a careful and reliable evaluation for both children and adults.

WISC-V / WPPSI-IV: Cognitive assessment tools can help provide insight into areas such as memory and processing speed for children aged 2+ through to adulthood.
BASC-3: Behavioural assessment information is collected from the individual, parents and teachers to provide insight into emotional and behavioural experiences across settings.
ACE / ACE+: A semi-structured interview designed to support ADHD assessment, using ACE for children and ACE+ for adults.
Conners 3: These rating scales evaluate ADHD-related symptoms in children and adolescents aged 6–18, drawing on input from parents, teachers and self-report measures.
