Autism & ADHD Assessment

If you're considering an ADHD or autism assessment, book an initial 50-minute session. In this session, we’ll talk through whether an assessment is right for you, what the process will look like, and discuss the costs and any questions you have. After the session, I’ll email you a tailored plan with all the details you need to move forward, just in case you forget everything we talk about!

How the Assessment Process Works

Step 1: Initial Appointment & Assessment Decision
In our first 50-minute session, we’ll dive into what’s been going on for you. I’ll ask about your background, your experiences, and why you’re thinking about an ADHD or autism assessment. You’ll also fill out a few screening tools beforehand to help guide our conversation.
From there, we’ll figure out the best path for you. We can decide together whether to move forward with an assessment, or I can email you some options so you have time to think it over; no rush!

Step 2: The Assessment Process
If we decide to move ahead with the assessment, we’ll book 1-3 sessions, depending on what’s best for you. This may also include a cognitive assessment, where we look at how your brain processes information and what your strengths are.

Step 3: Results & Feedback
Once the assessment is complete, we’ll schedule a feedback session where I’ll walk you through the results. You’ll also receive a report summarising the findings and my recommendations. You’ll have the option to choose between a brief report or a detailed report, depending on what suits you best.

Cost of the Assessment

The cost of your assessment will depend on the specific path we decide on together.

Every initial session is $240, where we’ll go over your background, discuss your concerns, and decide if an assessment is the right choice for you.

If we move forward with the assessment, the overall cost will be tailored to suit your situation. I’ll provide you with a detailed cost outline after our initial session, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. A deposit will need to be paid before the assessment process begins, which will cover the cost of your report.

Here are some example costs to give you a better idea:

Single Diagnostic Assessment
Initial session: $240
ADHD or Autism Diagnostic session: $360
Feedback session: $240

Brief Report: $480
Total: $1320

If You’ve Been Wondering Whether an ADHD or Autism Assessment is Right for You…

If you’ve been thinking about an ADHD or autism assessment for a while now, you're not alone. Maybe a health professional has recommended it, or perhaps family or friends have suggested that something might be at play. It could even be your own research or observations that have led you to wonder whether ADHD or autism might be part of the picture.

You might have noticed ongoing challenges with focus, managing the demands of life, social interactions, or even constant fatigue, and it’s been harder than you'd like to admit. You might have been feeling different, as if something more than just anxiety or stress is at the root of your struggles. Whether it’s difficulty keeping up with social expectations or an overwhelming sense of exhaustion, it’s understandable to question if there’s something deeper going on.

This process isn’t about labels (unless you want it to be!). It’s about getting to the heart of what’s going on for you and finding practical solutions for the challenges you’re facing. Even if an assessment shows that ADHD or autism isn’t the main cause of your struggles, it will still offer valuable insights and help us identify the next steps to take to improve your well-being. You’ll walk away with clarity, strategies tailored to you, and a plan to work through the things that are getting in your way, whether it’s anxiety, social fatigue, or other life challenges.

Frequently asked questions

To make the process as smooth as possible, here’s how payments work:

Deposit: The cost of the report is required upfront as a deposit before the assessment process begins. This deposit secures your spot and covers the cost of the final report.
Session Payments: Each session is paid for on the day of the appointment. The initial 50-minute session is $240, and subsequent assessment sessions are charged individually.
Payment Plans: If you’d prefer to split your payments into smaller amounts, we can discuss a payment plan that works for you. This can be especially helpful if you’d like to break down the costs of your assessment sessions. Please feel free to reach out to discuss options!
