Neurodiversity-Affirming ADHD Assessment
Want to explore a diagnosis of ADHD from a strengths-based, affirming approach?
We understand the stigma that a deficit-focused model of ADHD has caused and we are over it! After working in ADHD support for the past few years, we have heard how unsupportive the assessment process can feel.
Neurodiversity is such an important consideration, so have tailored our process with peer guidance from neurodiverse folks on how to make it accessible and supportive. We believe in being a member of your team, collaborating with you throughout the process, and being open to feedback.
We also have an emphasis on women & girls, as we know from the research that diagnosis rates have been under-reported due to assessments focusing on male-centric ADHD presentations.

Process
Our assessment process includes: online intake forms, optional complimentary meet and greet call, 90-minute assessment interview (online or in-person), further questionnaires via email, a 20-minute feedback call, and a thorough report with all the details and next steps you need to know. We will include extra information at each step in different formats – such as flowcharts, resource lists, and more.
Fees
Our pricing takes into account the hours of hands on work (scoring and interpreting assessments, meeting with client, formulating and report writing), as well as the overheads incurred on these assessments. We must pay for licensing use of each assessment and ongoing fees for systems used, in addition to the usual overhead costs of any Psychology service.
Our pricing for ADHD assessment is $1170 for the package, which includes your in-depth assessment interview appointment, follow-up feedback session, assessment scoring, report writing, and support along the way via email.
Unfortunately assessments are not covered by Medicare and as such no rebate can be applied. Your Mental Health Care Plan applies to therapy support only. Payment must be made prior to the date of your assessment interview. We offer payment plans as needed.
