At the Melbourne Psychology Clinic (MPC), we offer comprehensive psychological assessments that focus on cognitive, educational and socio-emotional development.
Assessment can focus on a range of presentations and needs, including:
Our assessments cover a wide range of areas, including:
Our assessments are conducted by postgraduate psychology Interns under the supervision of qualified psychologists, offering psychological services at an affordable rate.
Due to overwhelming demand and limited capacity, the Clinic is no longer able to accept new referrals for adult ADHD assessments for individuals over 25 years of age. We understand that this may be disappointing and encourage you to contact https://adhdfoundation.org.au/helpline and to consult with your GP for guidance.
We remain committed to providing a model of best practice for our services. Individuals 25 yearsand under who seek an ADHD assessment will receive a comprehensive assessment, which may include an Autism assessment if clinically warranted.
Our team of Supervising Educational and Development Psychologists are dedicated to understanding the unique presentation of neurodivergence. We aim to identify both strengths and challenges in each individual's neurodevelopmental profile.
We take an inclusive approach to language, ensuring that our Interns are trained to use Identity First language. For example, we use terms such as "Autistic" or "Autism" rather than ASD. This is in recognition that the word 'disorder' overlooks the qualities, beauty and strengths in Autistic individuals and reflects our commitment to embracing diversity.
Our Clinic is staffed by a diverse team of both neurotypical and neurodiverse Supervisors and Interns, united by a common goal: to provide inclusive, compassionate care while fostering a rich learning environment for our students.
