The Assessment Process
The assessment process usually consists of four stages.
The Four Stages
The first stage of the assessment process is to conduct a thorough clinical interview to gather background information about the person being assessed.
In the second stage, the psychologist will conduct formal psychometric testing. Family members or partners may also complete questionnaires as part of the testing process. In some instances, testing may be conducted over more than one session.
In the third stage of the process, the psychologist will score and interpret the tests and write a comprehensive report summarising the results.
Finally, a feedback session will be undertaken where the results of the assessment and the contents of the report are explained.
In most cases, Medicare rebates are not available for psychological assessments. You do not need a referral from a doctor to access our services. Simply contact our office to arrange an assessment.
Payment must be finalised before the report can be released.
