Child autism assessments
in
Gledswood Hills.

Wondering whether your child might be on the autism spectrum? Our psychologists carry out thorough autism assessments for children and teens, with clear findings and a practical plan for home, school and beyond.

Serving families across Gledswood Hills, Liverpool, and Macarthur.

No referral needed. We'll help you work out the right next step.
How our autism assessments work.
Step 1: Parent interview
We talk to you first about your child's development, communication, social interactions, and what prompted your concerns. This gives us the full picture before we meet your child.
Step 2: Child assessment sessions
Your child completes a series of structured and play-based activities, including the ADOS-2, a widely used standardised observation tool, adapted to their age and comfort level.
Step 3: Assessment report
You receive a detailed report explaining the findings, your child's strengths and support needs, and specific recommendations for home, school and any further services.
Step 4: Feedback & next steps
Your psychologist walks you through the results, answers your questions, and outlines a practical plan, whether that's therapy, school support, NDIS access, or all three.

Monday to Friday, 9am to 4:30pm, or leave a message and we’ll call you back.

We’re away from the phones right now. Send an enquiry and we’ll get back to you by the next business morning.

Does my child have Autism?
Every child is different, and autism presents in many ways. Parents often come to us when they notice patterns like:
  • Difficulty making or keeping friendships
  • Preferring to play alone or struggling in group settings
  • Intense focus on specific interests or topics
  • Sensitivity to sounds, textures, lights, or crowds
  • Meltdowns that seem triggered by sensory or routine changes
  • Difficulty understanding social cues or body language
  • Repetitive movements or routines they get upset about changing
  • Delayed or unusual speech and language development
If any of this sounds familiar, a child autism assessment can give you clarity. Our child autism assessments are designed to be thorough but comfortable, whether the answer is autism, something else, or nothing to worry about.

Your questions, answered.

How do I get my child tested for autism?

You can book a child autism assessment directly with us. No referral is needed. Fees depend on what the assessment needs to cover, and whether Medicare rebates apply depends on your child's situation. Call us on 1300 151 110 or send an enquiry and we'll schedule your child's first session.

How old does my child need to be for an autism assessment?

We assess children from age 4. Signs of autism can show earlier, so we look at your child's social communication, play and routines, with input from home and from preschool or school.

What if the assessment shows it's not autism?

That's a valuable outcome too. If autism is ruled out, the assessment often identifies what is going on, whether that's anxiety, a learning difficulty, giftedness, or something else. Either way, the report sets out what we found and the next steps we recommend.

Will you provide a report for the school?

Yes. Your comprehensive report includes specific school-based recommendations that you can share with your child's teacher or learning support team.

What happens after the assessment?

That depends on your child's needs. Some families move into ongoing therapy to build coping strategies and executive functioning skills. Others use the report to access school accommodations or NDIS support. Your psychologist will help you decide what makes sense.
