I provide comprehensive neurodevelopmental and cognitive assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. Assessments are tailored to the individual’s history, current presentation, and referral questions.
The aim of assessment is to support accurate diagnosis, clarify strengths and difficulties, and provide practical recommendations for home, education, and health settings.

Comprehensive assessment of social communication, developmental history, behavioural presentation, and associated strengths and challenges.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Intellectual Disability (ID)
Cognitive assessment alongside evaluation of adaptive functioning to determine intellectual and functional profile.
Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD)

Comprehensive Neurodevelopmental Assessment
Integrated assessment where multiple diagnostic considerations are present (e.g., ASD/ADHD; ID/ASD).
