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 Windsor 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 Does an ADHD Assessment Include?

We take a comprehensive and tailored approach to ADHD assessment for Windsor residents, with each stage designed to gather relevant information and guide clear recommendations. The process includes:

Multiple Assessment Appointments

A series of appointments helps us build a detailed understanding of the individual’s presentation, needs and experiences.

Detailed Questionnaires

Questionnaires are completed by the individual and, where appropriate, by parents and teachers to provide insight into behaviours and experiences across different settings.

Professional Report Writing

A written report brings together the assessment findings, helping clarify ADHD symptoms and outlining recommendations based on the individual’s needs.

Tools Utilised in an ADHD Assessment

We draw on validated diagnostic assessment tools to help build a clear and structured understanding of ADHD-related symptoms in both children and adults.

WISC-V / WPPSI-IV: These tools assess cognitive abilities across children and adults, including areas such as memory, processing speed and related thinking skills.
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: Designed for children aged 6–18, these rating scales gather information about ADHD symptoms from parents, teachers and the individual.
