Assessment Types
Autism Assessment
Autism Assessment
Autism Assessment
Autism is a neurodiversity and may impact how a person thinks, feels, interacts with other and experiences their environment. Individuals with Autism may have sensitivities to sensory stimuli, have specific interests and may engage in repetitive patterns of behaviours.
A comprehensive Autism assessment identifies whether an individual meets the criteria for a diagnosis, as well as taking the time to explore and understand how the individual experiences their world in order to support them in accessing the best intervention.

ADHD Assessment
Autism Assessment
Autism Assessment
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodiversity and may impact how a person thinks, feels, interacts with other and experiences their environment. Individuals with the inattentive component have difficulty with maintaining concentration, remaining organised, and may be easily distracted. Individuals with the hyperactive/impulsive component may have trouble sitting still, waiting their turn, and often need to fidget or talk.
A comprehensive ADHD assessment explores whether an individual meets the criteria for a diagnosis and whether they exhibit a predominantly inattentive, hyperactive/impulsive, or combined presentation.

These assessments evaluate an individual's current academic performance across areas such as maths, reading, writing, spelling, listening, and oral language. Results indicate whether an individual has learning difficulties and if they meet criteria for a diagnosis of a Specific Learning Disorder (SLD), including Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, and Dyscalculia. Our goal is to provide the necessary support to enhance academic success and self-esteem.
