Assessments

We provide a range of psychological assessments to help individuals and families gain clarity and the support they need. Assessments can play an important role in understanding challenges, identifying strengths, and guiding the right treatment and supports.

Autism Assessments

Are you or your child experiencing difficulties with social communication, repetitive behaviours and routines, sensory challenges, or learning difficulties? An autism assessment can help identify strengths and challenges and guide recommendations for support to help you improve at home, work, school, and everyday life.

ADHD Assessments

If attention, focus, organisation, or impulsivity are areas of concern, an ADHD assessment may provide valuable insights. We take the time to gather information from interviews, questionnaires, observations, testing, and liaising with other health professionals to ensure an accurate and well-rounded understanding.

Open Mind is dedicated to creating a safe, judgement free space where clients will feel supported and heard, no matter the challenge. We understand that seeking support can be a difficult step, so we tailor our services to guide you through your mental health journey.
