Understanding yourself can be deeply personal.
Our assessment process is designed to be thorough, transparent and validating. We use national guidelines, clinical interviews and recognised tools while considering masking, context and the whole person — not only a checklist.
Visit our Parramatta clinic in Sydney or access assessment by telehealth video Australia-wide, subject to clinical suitability. We support adults exploring a possible late autism diagnosis, including people who have spent years masking their experiences.

The fees for autism and combined Autism + ADHD assessment are listed above.
What if I am unsure which assessment I need?
The initial consultation is the place to discuss this. Autism and ADHD screening information can be considered before you commit to a full pathway.
