ADHD & Autism assessments
Let's make this an exceptional experience
Right now you might be feeling some anxiety, overwhelm and even some internalized mean girl nastiness ("maybe I'm just lazy...or everyone is going to think I'm chasing a trend"). A huge sense of relief and joy is just around the corner
I have a unique skill set with my background in perinatal mental health, trauma and business coaching. I already work with so many exceptional, funny ND women post diagnosis. With the stories of waiting lists getting longer and longer, I've decided it makes sense to offer ADHD & Autism assessments.
real talk:
Maybe your neurodivergent brain type hasn't been picked up because you don't fit the cliche!
You can be highly intelligent, ambitious, successful, high masking and have an ADHD/Autistic brain. In fact, I opened up this part of my business because I realised 90% of the entrepreneurs and mums I work with are neurodiverse!
Diagnosis can provide insight, clarity & relief
in 16 years of working with women I've noticed
Many women can mask adhd &/or austism...until they have kids!
The mental load of parenting and working can wipe out your executive functioning. This then affects your confidence as a mother. You might run a successful business but struggle to run a bath. Cue shame, anxiety & all the imposter fears.
That's where I can help
What do I get?
clear understanding of your neurotype
Diagnosis can help you understand your strengths & what you need feel firing at your best
A support plan to buffer challenges
I want you to be able to get practical support straight away, which is why my assessment style incorporates more than just feedback
freedom to do what you're great at
You get to choose to parent or run a business in a way that suits your nervous system to a tea. Let me show you find fun in harnessing your unique strengths
How does this sound?
This is what I recommend
Book your initial session (50 mins) & we'll talk options & preferences
Book your assessment session/s (generally 2 hours or 2 x 2 hours)
Add on your x3 'what now?' practical support sessions (you get a discount)
I write a 2 page letter or a 20 page report depending on preferences
You can take the letter or report & be on your merry way...BUT 16+ years tells me the support sessions have the MOST value
What are my options?
Just a little bite
ADHD or Autism Assessment + letter only
up tp 3 hours of interview & assessment
self-report measures to complete & return to me before assessment
A 2 page confirmation letter
$1500AUD (includes your initial consult)
Give me something sweet
Assessment + practical support
A diagnosis is great, but what about practical things like how to cope with work/kids & understanding how hormones fit into the mix?
Everything above +
x3 1 hour discounted sessions to use within 6 weeks
$2250AUD (includes initial consult)
I need a burger with the lot
Full ADHD/Autism Assessment + longer report
Up to 4 hours of interview, assessment & feedback
self-report measures to complete & return to me before assessment
A longer report with a LOT of detail
$2500AUD to be paid upon booking (includes your initial consult)
This doesn't include the 3 support sessions, but you can add on ($750) if desired
Is This Right For You?
You're more than ready for a diagnosis
You're fine with telehealth
YOu've got the funds ready

Book Your 1st consult
If you're ready to get started, there's some questions to fill out + an info and consent form. This helps me plan our first session and understand what you're looking for. I'll confirm times, prices and options in that first session. You can also read the FAQ below or book a 15 minute chat with me first
Can you prescribe medication?
No. I can support you to understand medication+mood+hormones, but I can't prescribe it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you anti medication?
Not at all! I've seen it do wonderous things but as a Psychologist I obviously value behavioural and emotional approaches pretty highly too!
Will this assessment get me NDIS funding?
I can't gaurantee it. NDIS approval depends on many factors that are beyond my control.
Will Medicare cover my assessment?
Nope. You may be able to claim for further therapy but not assessment.
Can I use private health?
Private health may cover some. You'll need to ask your provider as companies and policies vary widely.
Letter vs Report? What's the difference?
A letter will give you a diagnosis & contains no personal stuff (in case you want a copy for your employer). A full report is for a deep dive & data
Do I need a referral?
No. not for assessment. You only need a GP referral if you want to use Medicare to claim for therapy.
How do I prepare for an assessment?
Comfy clothes, water, snacks, fidgets & turn off notifications. Feel free to jot down notes before or during sessions. Pets can join you but no kids please
