ADHD and educational assessments in Camberwell, Fitzroy and McKinnon

At Reflection Psychology, we offer comprehensive ADHD assessments and educational assessments in Fitzroy, Camberwell, and McKinnon. Our experienced team of psychologists is dedicated to supporting individuals of all ages in understanding and overcoming challenges related to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other learning difficulties.

ADHD, commonly diagnosed in both children and adults, can significantly affect various aspects of life, including academic performance, social interactions, and emotional well-being. Our ADHD assessments for children and adults are designed to provide a clear and accurate diagnosis, helping to identify specific issues such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Whether you’re concerned about your child’s performance in school or your own struggles with focus and organisation, our child and adolescent psychologists are here to guide you through the process.

Common difficulties or symptoms to look out for:

  • Difficulty focusing or concentrating on tasks
  • Impulsivity and difficulty controlling actions
  • Hyperactivity or excessive restlessness
  • Frequent forgetfulness and disorganisation
  • Trouble following instructions or completing tasks
  • Difficulty maintaining attention during conversations
  • Struggles with time management and prioritising tasks
  • Emotional regulation issues, such as frequent mood swings
  • Academic underachievement despite effort
  • Challenges in social interactions and forming relationships

Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial in managing ADHD and related conditions. Through our ADD assessments for children and adults, we aim to pinpoint the root causes of behavioural and cognitive difficulties. Identifying these issues early allows for timely intervention, which can significantly improve outcomes in both academic and social settings.

Comprehensive educational assessments

In addition to ADHD assessments, we provide educational assessments for learning difficulties. These assessments are tailored to address a range of concerns, including scholastic underachievement, social and emotional challenges, and motivational issues. Our cognitive educational assessments can also help determine school readiness and assist in applying for accommodations and concessions that ensure your child receives the support they need to thrive.

Following the assessment, our psychologists work closely with you to develop a personalised treatment plan. This may include behavioural therapy, educational interventions, and, if necessary, referrals for medication management. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where individuals can achieve their full potential, whether in school, at work, or in everyday life. We also offer specialised anxiety treatment to support individuals dealing with related emotional challenges.
