Initial Screening Assessment and Written Summary:
This service is for new clients looking for a brief analysis to understand their child's communication skills. It includes a caregiver intake questionnaire, play-based observations, informal tests, and a written summary outlining general findings and recommendations.
Comprehensive Assessments and Reports:
This service is for clients needing a new or review assessment and written report (for a school, paediatrician or funding body). It includes a detailed and holistic exploration of a child's overall communication profile.
Typically, 2-3 appointments are spent building a relationship and administering a range of observations, informal tests and standardised assessments.
An intake form and intake interview will inform decisions around the most suitable assessments for you or your child.
The results are then summarised in a detailed assessment report outlining communication skills, any relevant diagnoses, and recommendations for support.
Costs vary based on the amount of testing required.
Clinic based appointments: Sessions are provided at a home-based office in Morningside, Brisbane. The space is co-located with Perspective Psychology Services in Hurd Terrace.
