Soumya Psychology provides comprehensive psychological assessments for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) for adults aged 18 years and over.
Assessments are neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, and collaborative. The focus is on developing a clear, respectful understanding of each individual's lived experience, strengths, challenges, and support needs across work, study, relationships, and wellbeing.

Private Health Insurance:
Some insurers provide limited rebates for psychological assessment sessions. Clients are encouraged to check directly with their insurer.
NDIS:
For individuals with existing NDIS plans, assessment costs may be funded under plan supports where appropriate. Reports can be prepared to support NDIS access or plan reviews.
A deposit is required to commence the assessment process, with the remaining balance payable prior to release of the final report.
Requests outside the original assessment scope (e.g. revised reports, additional letters, NDIS-specific addenda) are quoted separately.
You do not need to know in advance whether ADHD, Autism, or a combined assessment is most appropriate — this is explored during the initial consultation.
