Adult ADHD assessment in Brisbane
Late diagnosis welcome.
More and more adults are discovering that the struggles they’ve carried for decades have a name. Our comprehensive neuropsychological ADHD assessment gives you a thorough, formal diagnosis and a detailed report, with a process designed for adults, including those exploring ADHD for the first time in their 30s, 40s and beyond.
Our ADHD psychologists focus on working with adults. Our ADHD assessment for adults combines a clinical interview, validated testing and in-depth analysis, and a full written report explained to you in plain language.
When the penny finally drops
More and more adults are reaching their thirties, forties, even fifties before realising they have ADHD. For some, the recognition comes after their own child is diagnosed and they see themselves in the description. For others it’s a conversation, an article, or years of treatments for anxiety or low mood that never quite explained the whole picture.
If you’re seeking an adult ADHD diagnosis in Brisbane after years of wondering, you’re in exactly the right place. Late-diagnosis presentations are our specialty, and we understand the grief, relief and reframing that often comes with finally understanding your brain.
How your assessment works
Clinical interview
A thorough initial consultation covering your history, experiences and concerns, the foundation of an accurate diagnosis.
Testing & in-depth analysis
Formal ADHD testing: validated questionnaires completed by you and, where possible, someone who knows you well, tailored to your individual presentation.
Feedback, report & plan
A 50 to 60 minute feedback session with your written report, a plain-language explanation, and clear recommendations for what comes next.
Transparent assessment pricing
$2,500 with Shaista Saheed (five 1-hour sessions at $250/hr plus a $1,250 report fee) or $2,975 with Jeffrey Wong (five 1-hour sessions at $295/hr plus a $1,500 report fee).
$3,500 to $4,065 for a combined assessment.
Whilst report-writing fees do not attract a Medicare rebate, rebates may be accessed for the appointment fees incurred during the assessment with a valid Mental Health Care Plan: $101.55 per session with Shaista or $149.05 per session with Jeffrey. Assessments are typically completed across five one-hour appointments.
Jeffrey Wong offers ADHD assessments via telehealth on Tuesdays, available anywhere in Australia.
Assessors who work with adults every week
An assessment shaped around the whole you
Many adults seeking ADHD assessment have also lived with anxiety, low mood or trauma. We work with the whole picture, not just a checklist.
We see ADHD as a different way of being, not a defect. The goal is understanding your brain, not apologising for it.
Psychology and nutrition under one roof, because sleep, energy and food genuinely affect how ADHD shows up.
What working with us actually looks like
Fifty minutes, and mostly listening. We want to understand what has been happening and what you are hoping for before anyone talks about a plan. If we are not the right fit, we will say so.
Our psychologists draw on EMDR, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Schema Therapy. Which approach fits depends on you, and your psychologist will talk it through rather than apply a formula.
Every psychologist here is registered with AHPRA, and the team includes members of the Australian Psychological Society. You can read each practitioner's background and areas of practice before you book.
Assessment questions, answered
How long does an adult ADHD assessment take?+
The assessment runs across five one-hour sessions: a clinical interview, testing and in-depth analysis with validated questionnaires (completed by you and, where possible, someone who knows you well), then a 50 to 60 minute feedback session where you receive a written report and a verbal explanation of the findings.
How much does an ADHD assessment cost in Brisbane?+
Our comprehensive Adult ADHD Diagnostic Assessment is $2,500 with Shaista Saheed or $2,975 with Jeffrey Wong, including all sessions and the detailed report. A combined ADHD + Autism (ASD) assessment is $3,500 to $4,065. Full breakdown on our fees page.
Can I claim Medicare for an ADHD assessment?+
Partially. Four of the assessment sessions are Medicare rebateable with a valid Mental Health Care Plan ($101.55 per session with Shaista, $149.05 with Jeffrey). Report writing is not Medicare rebateable.
Can I do the assessment by telehealth?+
Yes. Jeffrey Wong offers ADHD assessments via telehealth on Tuesdays, so you can complete the process from anywhere in Australia.
Can you prescribe ADHD medication after diagnosis?+
No, we're a psychology clinic, not psychiatry. If you decide to explore medication after your diagnosis, your comprehensive assessment report is exactly what a psychiatrist needs, and we work alongside psychiatrists as part of your care team.
What happens after the assessment?+
Whatever the outcome, you leave with a detailed picture of your cognitive strengths and challenges. If ADHD is confirmed, many clients continue into ADHD treatment and coaching with us; your report also supports workplace adjustments and psychiatrist consultations.
