The Centre for Clinical Psychology offers comprehensive assessment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Upon completion of an assessment, we can provide you with psychological support and strategies to manage ADHD. We can also help you with therapy for self-esteem and adjustment, as well as building upon your strengths. We also provide mental health treatment for co-occurring mental health difficulties.
Assessments are conducted over 3 x 90-minute clinical consultations. The first two sessions are focused upon assessment. In the third session you will be provided with feedback and a written report with clinical recommendations.
