Assessments
The Quirky Kid Clinic offers a broad range of psychometric and diagnostic assessments in Sydney and now also in Melbourne.
- Developmental tests for infants aged 1 month to 42 months.
- Cognitive (IQ) assessments for children aged 6 -16years.
- Social and Communication skills assessments for 2-16 years.
- Educational assessments for 4 years and above.
- Autism-specific diagnostic tools, such as the Autism Diagnostic Observation Scales (ADOS).
Paediatricians, parents, school counsellors and general practitioners (GPs) commonly refer young clients to our friendly child psychologists for an accurate clinical formulation in a child-specific setting.
All assessment results are compiled in a detailed psychological report with a summary of clinical observations, background information, medical history and standardized test results prepared and analysed by the psychologist, not a computer. The substantial report is finalised with practical recommendations for parents, GPs, teachers in relation to academic, social, behavioural and emotional functioning.
Our Quirky Kid Clinic Psychological Assessment Reports are legal documents and can be used in court. Principal Psychologist, Kimberley O’Brien is an experienced Expert Witness in the Family Court.
