ADHD and Psychological Assessments in Perth

Comprehensive neurodevelopmental, psychological, cognitive and functional assessments for children, adolescents and adults – for clinical, educational, NDIS and medicolegal purposes.

Neurodevelopmental Assessment

Comprehensive, evidence-based and best-practice assessment of ADHD and related neurodevelopmental conditions across the lifespan, along with screening for autism (ASD). We combine a structured clinical interview with standardised rating scales, collateral information and, where it adds something, cognitive testing. Reports are written to support diagnosis and treatment planning, and to make onward referral to a paediatrician or psychiatrist straightforward if medication is being considered.

Cognitive and Educational Assessment

For questions about how a child or adult thinks and learns. We assess intellectual ability, learning difficulties, giftedness and intellectual disability using standardised measures such as the WISC-V, WAIS-5 and WIAT-III, and translate the results into clear, practical recommendations for school, university, work and home.

Independent assessments to deliver clear, practical advice.

BeWell provides independent neurodevelopmental, psychological, cognitive and functional assessment for children, adolescents and adults, delivered by experienced psychologists, psychiatrists and occupational therapists who remain active in clinical practice.

We understand our responsibilities as independent assessors. Every report is objective, balanced and written to be useful – to you, and to the people making decisions with you: schools, GPs, paediatricians, psychiatrists, NDIS planners, insurers and lawyers.

We use best-practice, evidence-based assessment protocols matched to each referral question, and we keep the process as simple as we can. You will always know what is happening next, and you will always get a report you can understand and act on.
