Every child experiences and interacts with the world in their own unique way. Psychological assessments help families understand a child’s thinking, learning, and behaviour so they can support them at home, at school, and beyond.
We offer assessments for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and cognitive functioning (IQ).
These explore a child’s strengths, challenges, and daily functioning. Cognitive assessments examine overall intellectual ability as well as specific areas such as memory, attention, reasoning, and problem-solving, and are often included as part of a thorough ADHD evaluation.
All comprehensive assessments include a detailed written report and a feedback session, helping parents understand the results and how best to support their child’s development, learning, and wellbeing.

About
Jessica is a warm, genuine, and compassionate registered psychologist who is dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, and their families. She helps young people make sense of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours — and helps parents better understand and connect with their child.
Jessica has experience providing assessment and therapy services in both school and private hospital settings, giving her a broad understanding of how emotional, social, and learning needs show up across home and school environments.
As a neurodiverse person herself, Jessica brings lived experience and empathy to the assessment process. She understands first-hand the relief, clarity, and confidence that a thoughtful assessment can bring. Her approach is neuroaffirming, respectful, and tailored to each child’s individuality and strengths.
As a parent, Jessica appreciates that every family has its own story, challenges, and hopes. She believes that psychological assessments are not just about diagnoses and difficulties but about helping parents truly see and understand their child — opening up new ways to support and connect with them.
Jessica is registered with the Psychology Board of Australia and is a member of the Australian Psychological Society. She is currently a Clinical Psychology Registrar, working toward endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist.
When she’s not working with families, Jessica continues her role as a psychologist in a school setting — or finds any excuse to spend time outdoors in the sunshine.
