What we assess
Four kinds of assessment
Each one answers a different question. We'll help you work out which one fits — and sometimes the answer is more than one.
ADHD
A thorough look at attention, activity, executive functioning, and impulsivity across settings such as home and school/work — using standardised measures alongside information from home, school, and work.
Autism
A comprehensive evaluation of an individual across areas of social communication and interaction, patterns of restricted or repetitive behaviours, interests, and/or sensory experiences. Information is considered across contexts and the individual's lifespan rather than against a single 'normal' standard.
Cognitive (IQ)
Intellectual ability, including giftedness and intellectual disability. A clear profile of cognitive strengths and the areas that may require more support.
Specific Learning Disorders (SLD)
An educational assessment that examines an individuals ability in reading, writing, and mathematics. Previously known as Dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia. This assessment aims to pinpoint where specific learning challenges are so the right adjustments can be put in place at school or university.
How it works
What the process looks like
Four steps, spread out to keep things calm rather than crammed into a single overwhelming day.
1
Step one
A first conversation
A 60-minute interview gathering background — developmental history, how things are at home, at school, with work or study, with friends. With your consent we may collect information from teachers, GPs, or previous reports. Telehealth available where appropriate.
2
Step two
Testing
Direct assessment using standardised measures — cognition, attention, memory, processing speed, and (depending on the question we're asking) academic skills or autism-specific tasks. Usually two to four hours, often split over two sessions where needed.
3
Step three
The report
A thorough written report that pulls all the threads together — interviews, testing, observations — and answers the actual question you came in with. Plain language, with concrete recommendations for home, school or work, and supports.
4
Step four
Feedback session
A 60-minute session walking you through assessment results, what these mean, and what to do next. You can bring whoever needs to be there. You'll leave with the report and a list of next steps you don't have to figure out on your own.
