ADHD Assessments
We provide comprehensive ADHD assessments to help parents understand their child's behaviour and learning patterns. Our assessments focus on identifying the core characteristics of ADHD and providing valuable insights to support a child's development.
What is an ADHD Assessment?​
An ADHD assessment is a thorough evaluation designed to determine if a child meets the diagnostic criteria for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It involves gathering information from various sources to build a complete picture of a child's strengths and challenges.​
Our Assessment Process: A Step-by-Step Guide
Initial Consultation
We begin with a detailed conversation with you, the parents, to understand your concerns and your child's developmental history. This helps us gather information about your child's behaviour, academic performance, and social interactions. We will discuss your child's strengths and difficulties and answer any questions you may have.
Questionnaires
We will provide you and your child's teachers with standardised questionnaires (Connors, Brown) to assess their behaviour in different settings. These questionnaires help us quantify and compare your child's behaviour to established norms. Common scales include those that measure inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

Diagnosis and Medication
Our assessments are designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of your child's behaviour and potential ADHD characteristics. We focus on providing diagnostic clarity and recommendations for behavioural and educational interventions.
If a diagnosis of ADHD is made and medication is considered appropriate, a referral to a qualified psychiatrist or paediatrician will be necessary. We can provide information to assist in that referral process.
