Our approach

Assessments and Answers Psychology conducts comprehensive psychological assessments using a combination of interviews, questionnaires, and standardised tests to understand how your child thinks, learns, and processes information. Sessions are designed to be supportive and helpful, using fun, structured activities and gold-standard tools tailored to your child's needs. Assessments may involve observation of attention, problem-solving, language, memory, social skills, and emotions depending on your concerns. The provider conducts all face-to-face testing in familiar settings (your home or school) to minimise anxiety and ensure accurate engagement, with initial consultations and follow-up discussions available online. Throughout the process, clinicians prioritise building rapport and adjusting their approach to match each child's comfort level and developmental needs.

Working with families

Parents and carers are central to the assessment process and are involved from the outset through a caregiver interview where background information and observations are gathered. Teachers and other caregivers are consulted with parental consent to build a comprehensive understanding of your child's needs across different settings. During the feedback session, assessment results are discussed in detail, including any diagnoses, key strengths and areas of difficulty, and practical recommendations tailored to your child's home and school environments. The provider emphasises that information is confidential and only shared with others if you provide written permission or for safety reasons. Parents are encouraged to ask questions and work collaboratively with the clinicians to plan next steps for their child's development and wellbeing.

Kim Dunn is a registered psychologist with AHPRA and AAPI membership with experience across schools and community organisations, taking a thorough, strengths-based approach with clear, practical recommendations.

Your first visit

At a first appointment, the process begins with learning about your child through a caregiver interview conducted via telehealth (approximately 2 hours for autism assessments, 1 hour for ADHD assessments). You'll be asked to share any helpful reports or documents, such as previous assessments, school reports, or medical records. Direct face-to-face testing with your child follows, using structured activities and standardised tools appropriate to the assessment type. The psychologist will also work with your child's school (with your consent) to gather observations about how things are going in that setting. A feedback session via telehealth concludes the process, where results are discussed and recommendations are provided.
