Online ADHD Assessment- Ages 12-16

Service Description

Our assessments for young people (12-16 years old) are done by psychologists that specialise in ADHD and are highly trained in undertaking ADHD assessments. We then offer support for people after their ADHD assessments to help them engage in a suggested treatment plan; helping them access psychiatrists, psychologists and resources to learn more about their ADHD or mental health. Unlike psychiatrists, psychologists cannot prescribe medication. However, psychologists can diagnose ADHD. Choosing a psychologist for an assessment of ADHD can have the following benefits. - A shorter wait time for the assessment - Comprehensive assessments – our ADHD assessments include a one hour clinical interview with the young person's parent or legal guardian to assess for the symptoms of ADHD and how these symptoms impact their daily life. - Our assessments are online, so can be accessed across the country without needing to travel to a clinic - Our post-assessment care will help you and the young person learn about their symptoms, the impact of these symptoms and how to access treatment and support. - Shorter wait time allows for behavioural treatment and work and study accommodation plans to be made while you wait to see a psychiatrist to discuss medication. We can offer assessments within the week - All our assessments are sensitive and trauma-informed. If you have any questions, we are happy to discuss them with you. Please send an email to hello@adhdtherapy.com.au, and our Principal Psychologist, Anthony Brown, will contact you to address any questions you have.
