Adult ADHD & Autism Assessment
A neurodivergent-affirming assessment may help clarify lifelong patterns, strengths, support needs, and practical next steps. The process considers your history, context, and goals.
EMDR & Trauma Therapy
EMDR may support some people who experience distressing memories, trauma responses, or recurring emotional triggers. Psychological safety comes first, and you remain in control of the pace.
Chinese-Speaking Psychologist
Therapy and assessment can be provided in English, Cantonese, or Mandarin. Using your most natural language may make it easier to express feelings, understand your experience, and approach yourself with compassion.
Adult ADHD & Autism Assessment Pathway
A clear assessment pathway can help you understand whether ADHD, autism, or AuDHD assessment may be a suitable next step. The process is collaborative, paced, and informed by your current goals and history.
Initial enquiry or 15-minute call
A brief enquiry can clarify your goals, location, language preference, and whether the service may be a suitable fit before arranging appointments.
Assessment-informed intake
The intake may explore current concerns, developmental history, strengths, stressors, masking, sensory needs, and relevant background information.
Structured assessment sessions
Assessment may include clinical interview, questionnaires, and collateral information where appropriate, depending on the referral question and clinical fit.
Feedback and next steps
Feedback may include formulation, recommendations, report options, therapy planning, or referral suggestions, depending on assessment findings and your needs.
