It helps identify whether ADHD-related features are present, explains their functional impact, and guides practical support for work, study, relationships, and routines.
This comprehensive ADHD assessment in Gladesville supports clear diagnosis, practical recommendations and coordinated care.
Assessment Overview
An ADHD assessment provides clear insight into attention, organisation, executive functioning and behavioural patterns. It helps determine whether ADHD-related features are present, explains their impact on daily life, and guides practical support for work, study, relationships and routines.

Understanding Attention, Regulation, and Daily Functioning
ADHD affects more than attention alone. It can influence organisation, working memory, emotional regulation, impulse control, planning, and the ability to shift between tasks. For some people, these patterns have been present since childhood; for others, challenges become more noticeable during times of transition, increased responsibility, or academic or workplace demands. An ADHD assessment provides clarity about how these experiences affect daily routines, relationships, learning, and wellbeing.
Why ADHD Assessment Is Important Across the Lifespan
ADHD can present differently in children, adolescents, and adults. Screening tools and structured interviews help differentiate ADHD from anxiety, stress, fatigue, learning differences, or other factors that impact focus and organisation. Many individuals are assessed later in life after recognising persistent difficulties with planning, prioritising, or maintaining routines. Assessment results help determine whether ADHD-related features are present, and they guide recommendations for support across home, school, study, and work settings.
Supporting Strengths, Confidence, and Practical Daily Strategies
A clear understanding of attention and executive functioning helps individuals build strategies that make daily life more manageable. Assessment findings can inform routines, planning systems, environmental adjustments, and approaches to improve focus and efficiency. These insights also support communication with schools, workplaces, GPs, and support networks to ensure needs are better understood and accommodated. For many people, understanding their attention profile brings increased self-awareness, reduced frustration, and a more practical path forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can medication be discussed as part of the assessment?
Psychologists do not prescribe medication. However, if medication may be part of your overall treatment plan, our reports can support referral discussions with your GP or psychiatrist.
Are ADHD assessments suitable if I’m unsure whether my difficulties are ADHD or something else?
Yes. Many people seek assessment to clarify whether their experiences relate to ADHD, anxiety, stress, learning differences or other factors. A comprehensive assessment helps identify underlying contributors and guide the most appropriate support.
Do you offer ADHD-focused therapy?
Yes. Our psychologists provide psychological therapy tailored to attention, organisation, executive functioning, emotional regulation and daily-life challenges commonly associated with ADHD. Therapy may include CBT, behavioural strategies, skills training and practical supports for routines and planning.
What happens after the assessment?
Following the assessment, your psychologist will explain the findings, discuss any relevant diagnoses, and provide practical recommendations. If therapy is appropriate, we can outline evidence-based strategies for managing attention, organisation, emotional regulation and daily routines.
Will the assessment help with workplace, study or NDIS documentation?
Assessment reports can outline functional impacts that may be relevant for workplace adjustments, study supports or NDIS planning. If additional documentation is required for other professionals or agencies, this can be discussed during your feedback session.
Can ADHD assessments or therapy be completed via telehealth?
Some components, such as interviews, questionnaires and feedback sessions, can be completed via secure telehealth. Standardised cognitive tests generally need to be conducted in person to ensure accuracy. We can discuss suitable options if travel or access is a barrier.
How long does an ADHD assessment take?
Most ADHD assessments are completed over two to three sessions. This includes an initial clinical interview, targeted assessment of attention and executive functioning, scoring and interpretation, and a feedback session. Timeframes may vary depending on your individual needs and assessment complexity.
Do I need a referral to book an ADHD assessment?
No referral is required to book an ADHD assessment with iflow Psychology. A GP referral may be helpful if you are also accessing therapy and would like to explore Medicare rebates. We can advise on the most appropriate pathway based on your situation.
Can ADHD be diagnosed in adults?
Yes. ADHD can be diagnosed in adulthood when current symptoms, developmental history and functional impacts are evaluated together. Our psychologists use recognised diagnostic criteria, validated tools and clinical interviews to provide an accurate and evidence-based assessment.
What is included in an ADHD assessment?
