Outreach Psychology Assessments

Mind in Mind Psychology provides evidence-based psychological assessments to support diagnostic clarity, treatment planning and access to appropriate supports.

We work with children, adolescents and adults who may benefit from assessment for:

• ADHD

• Autism

• Specific Learning Disorder

• Cognitive difficulties

• Diagnostic clarification where presentations are complex

Our service is designed to improve access for regional communities by combining face-to-face assessment delivery with telehealth intake, feedback and follow-up support.

A referral may be appropriate where there are concerns about:

• Attention, impulsivity or hyperactivity

• Social communication or autism-related differences

• Learning, reading, writing or maths difficulties

• Cognitive functioning, memory or executive skills

• A gap between ability and performance

• Ongoing emotional or behavioural concerns where diagnosis is unclear

We welcome referrals for both children and adults.

Assessment for children, adolescents and adults where neurodivergence is suspected.

Specific Learning Disorder Assessments

Assessment of reading, writing and maths difficulties, including diagnostic clarification for dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia.

Cognitive Assessments

Combined Assessments

Where clinically appropriate, combined assessment pathways may be recommended.

1. Referral or enquiry

Referrals can be made by GPs, schools, allied health professionals or directly by clients.

2. Intake appointment

An initial intake session is completed via telehealth to gather background information and determine the most appropriate assessment pathway.

3. Questionnaires and information gathering

Relevant questionnaires and collateral information are collected prior to the assessment.

4. Face-to-face assessment

Assessment is completed in person during our Whyalla outreach dates.

5. Report and feedback

Clients receive a comprehensive written report and a telehealth feedback session to discuss findings and recommendations.
