Adults 18+
Virtual (end-to-end encrypted)
You will need to provide evidence of your existing autism diagnosis.
​Includes a written summary of evidence of support needs level within the scope of psychology (i.e., not visiting your workplace to assess the need for modifications or assistive technology - this would be best from an OT).
IMPORTANT
Please note that this is an identification ("diagnostic") service, and likely won't be enough for accessing NDIS funding. So, what's the difference? Happy to explain!
Identification (diagnostic assessment) asks the question "Am I Autistic?" and then gathers enough information to confidently answer either yes or no.
A functional assessment (AKA "functional capacity assessment") asks the question, "how much is this person being actively disabled by their environment? And what are the practical impacts of disability for them?"
Applications for NDIS funding generally require a functional assessment in addition to a "diagnosis." They want evidence that funding is what they call, "reasonable and necessary". The NDIS does not consider a diagnosis to be enough to justify funding. I am happy to add this assessment on to the identification, on a case by case basis, as it takes many hours to write these reports, and therefore can get pricey for the client.

paediatric identification
Autism and ADHD assessment for young people (6-17 years). Understand a young person's neurotype & support needs. Autism assessments include a functional capacity assessment to support an NDIS application. Psychologists cannot prescribe medication. A paediatrician or paediatric psychiatrist can discuss suitability for medication.​​
paediatric restricted eating consults
I offer consultation (max 3 sessions) on restricted eating in children aged 4-18 years, where the primary motivation is not body image concerns. This service is strictly to assess the situation and provide a clear plan forward, and is not an ongoing intervention. This service may suit those who are concerned about their child's restricted diet, or who have tried many therapies or strategies which have not helped. Please click the waitlist button & fill out the form. I will follow-up to evaluate suitability on a case-by-case basis.
