    Many adults seeking neurodevelopmental assessments also experience coexisting mental health concerns, such as anxiety or depression. Our thorough evaluation process considers both, providing a clear diagnostic picture and guiding the best treatment options.

Common Challenges
in Adults

Adults seeking neurodevelopmental and mental health support often face unique challenges compared to children and adolescents.

Many have spent years without a diagnosis, managing symptoms without understanding their root causes. Others may have developed coping strategies that mask difficulties, making assessment more complex.

Responsibilities such as work, relationships, and family life can compound stress and create unique barriers to seeking help.

Our goal is to provide compassionate, tailored care that acknowledges these complexities and support adults in achieving long-term well-being.

Adult Assessments

Our adult assessments are designed to be thorough, respectful, and adapted to individual experiences.

We consider the impact of long-standing symptoms on on areas such as education, employment, and social relationships.

Our clinicians take a collaborative approach, gathering information from past medical, social, and psychological history, incorporating input from the individual, family members and/or employers/educators (if appropriate).

We also recognise that symptoms in adulthood may present differently than in childhood, requiring specialised diagnostic tools.

Unlike children, adults often require more self-reflection and historical context in their assessments. Our clinicians guide individuals through this process, helping them piece together past experiences to understand their present challenges.

Personalised Treatment for Adults

One of our core principles is meeting adults where they are. Whether someone is newly diagnosed or has been managing symptoms for years, we tailor interventions to suit their lifestyle, cognitive abilities, and personal goals. We adapt our communication style, ensuring that recommendations are practical, applicable, and manageable within daily life.

We provide ongoing guidance and resources tailored to each adult’s needs, including:

    • Workplace accommodations: Advice on reasonable adjustments, self-advocacy, and employer communication.
    • Therapeutic interventions: Access to evidence-based interventions, adapted to the needs of the adult.
    • Skill-building tools: Strategies for organisation, emotional regulation, and social skills development.
    • Community support: Recommendations for peer support groups, online communities, and professional networks.

 

We also offer self-directed learning, coping strategies, and long-term planning for those who may not able to commit to therapy at this time. 

Our goal is to equip adults with the tools and confidence needed to navigate life successfully.
