A dual assessment will provide an understanding of the cognitive strengths and areas of need, as well as provide a pathway for supports and necessary recommendations for Autism and ADHD. At Bruce Psychology, we offer gold standard assessments and produce recommendations which are designed to aid you in becoming your potential.

FAQ:
Will a diagnosis guarantee me funding?
No, receiving a diagnosis does not guarantee funding. In some cases, additional reports or assessments from other professionals, such as a psychiatrist, occupational therapist, or speech therapist, may be required to support your application for funding. Even with all the necessary documentation, funding approval is subject to the specific criteria and decision-making process of the funding body or program.
Can I claim a Medicare rebate or private health insurance for these assessments?
At this stage, our assessments are not eligible for Medicare rebates or private health insurance claims.
Are your assessments NDIS-compliant?
Yes, our assessments are conducted in line with the requirements of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). However, please note that we cannot guarantee that receiving an assessment or report will result in funding approval. The decision to approve funding is made solely by the NDIS.

Our comprehensive assessment process typically includes:
-
An initial consultation to gather background information.
-
Administration of standardized assessments tailored to your needs.
-
Analysis and interpretation of results by a qualified psychologist.
-
A detailed written report summarizing the findings, including strengths, challenges, and recommendations for next steps.
How long does the assessment process take?
The length will vary depending on the complexity of the case and the type of assessment required. On average, the entire process can take 4-6 weeks from the initial consultation to receiving the final report.
Do you provide follow-up support after the assessment?
Yes, we offer follow-up consultations to discuss the results and provide guidance on the next steps, including referrals to other professionals if required. We are committed to supporting you through your journey.
