Psychometric & Cognitive Assessments in Adelaide
A good assessment isn’t about labels — it’s about understanding.
Our Adelaide psychologists provide clear, compassionate ADHD, cognitive and learning assessments, with feedback you'll actually be able to use — for children, teenagers and adults. An assessment can bring relief, direction and a plan, rather than just a diagnosis.
We offer ADHD assessments, cognitive (IQ) assessments and learning assessments for children, teenagers and adults. Whether you're seeking clarity for yourself, your child or a student who's struggling, each assessment is thorough, evidence-based and tailored to the question you're trying to answer — from school and workplace support to a fuller understanding of how your mind works.
Assessments We Offer
What the Process Looks Like
An assessment usually involves an initial conversation to understand your concerns, one or more structured testing sessions, and a dedicated feedback session where we talk through what we found in plain language. You’ll receive a written report you can use with schools, workplaces, GPs or other professionals. Throughout, our focus is on making the process feel calm and unhurried — assessments can feel daunting, and we work hard to make them the opposite.
Fees & Rebates
Assessments are charged at an hourly rate, and the total depends on the scope of what’s involved. We’ll talk through the likely scope and cost with you upfront, so there are no surprises. Assessments themselves aren’t Medicare-rebatable, though if you have a Mental Health Care Plan, rebates may apply to any treatment sessions afterwards.
