Share care with us
Our clinic aims to address the unparalleled demand for ADHD assessments across the country. We are a telehealth service offer assessments across metropolitan, rural, and remote Australia with a low wait time.
Sharing care helps share the load of ADHD assessments
Our patients would present at your clinic with a completed clinical history, DIVA-5, collaborative information and assessment of mental health conditions. This would allow your psychiatrists to focus their time with the patient on assessing their mental and medical health and treatment. We respect that your psychiatrists will give an independent medical opinion of the patient's diagnosis. Our initial assessment offers the patient enough time to comprehensively explore their symptoms and the impact they have had on their lives and offer the psychiatrists quality information for their assessment to save time and appointments.
Clients coming from ADHD Therapy Australia will present for treatment with a fully comprehensive diagnostic report on or prior to their first appointment, allowing for the treatment options to be explored as quickly as possible. Our clinic also offers behavioural and therapeutic support for clients for their ADHD or mental health condition following their ADHD assessment.
