The Assessment Process

Our five-step process is designed to be thorough, supportive and clear:

1. Booking & Intake — Parents provide initial information and connect with the psychologist so your child's developmental history, concerns, strengths and assessment goals can be understood.

2. Telehealth Assessment — Assessment sessions are completed via secure telehealth. Depending on whether your child is being assessed for autism, ADHD or both, sessions may involve a parent interview, interaction with your child and age-appropriate activities.

3. Questionnaires & Supporting Information — Parents and, where relevant, teachers or educators may complete questionnaires so the psychologist can understand your child across different environments.

4. Comprehensive Report — Families receive a detailed report outlining findings, your child's individual neurodevelopmental profile, practical recommendations and next steps. Reports are generally provided within 4–6 weeks.

5. Paediatrician Review & Next Steps — Families can take the completed report to their paediatrician for review, ongoing planning and formal diagnosis where required.

A Neuro-Affirming Perspective

We view neurodivergence as a natural variation in human neurology. Our assessments focus on understanding your child's individual strengths, communication style, sensory preferences and support needs—rather than viewing differences as deficits. The insights from an autism or ADHD assessment can help Grafton families advocate for the right supports, plan effectively and create environments where their child can genuinely thrive.
