Psychological Assessments

It depends on the question you're trying to answer. If you suspect ADHD or autism specifically, those dedicated assessments are the most direct starting point. If you're seeking documentation for the NDIS, a workplace matter, or a legal process, those categories are more specific. If none of that fits clearly, a general Psychological & Cognitive Assessment — and a conversation with a matched psychologist — is the right place to start.

Sometimes, but not always. Assessments are generally scoped to a specific referral question, because that scope determines which tools and approach are used. If you have more than one question, it's worth raising all of them upfront so your psychologist can plan accordingly.

Generally no — you can book directly with a psychologist for most assessment types. Some contexts (Medicare rebates, certain workplace or legal processes) may involve a referral or specific instructions; this varies by assessment type.

Costs vary significantly by assessment type and scope, since a targeted assessment and a comprehensive multi-domain one are priced very differently. Your matched psychologist can give you cost guidance specific to the assessment you need.

Our matching process considers your specific assessment need, relevant clinical experience, and practical factors like cost and format, so you're matched with a psychologist genuinely equipped for the type of assessment you need.
