Assessing children and adolescents requires a developmentally appropriate and multi-faceted approach. Our assessments consider not just symptoms but also the child’s broader environment, including their experiences at school, at home, and in social settings.

We utilise a combination of:

• Parent and teacher input – Gathering observations from caregivers and educators to build a full picture of the child’s strengths and difficulties.

• Standardised assessment tools – Using evidence-based diagnostic tools designed for young people to ensure accurate and meaningful insights.

• Observational and interactive techniques – Engaging with the child in a way that feels natural and comfortable to minimise anxiety and maximise participation.

Our goal is to identify strengths as well as challenges, ensuring that each young person’s needs are understood in a way that fosters growth and confidence.
