Families seek psychological assessment when they want a deeper understanding of how their child thinks, learns and functions — particularly where school performance, learning differences or behavioural regulation are the primary concerns.
Psychological assessment provides structured testing and detailed formulation to clarify strengths, challenges and practical next steps.
Medical diagnosis of Autism or ADHD is provided via internal paediatric assessment following psychological assessment where required.
Psychological assessment may assist with:
• Learning difficulties and academic concerns
• Cognitive strengths and challenges
• Intellectual and adaptive functioning
• Behavioural and emotional regulation
• Complex developmental presentations
