Psychologist Kew

Psychologist accessible from Kew - ADHD and autism assessments, therapy, and support

While Kew is located on the inner edge of Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, many Kew residents choose Laburnum Psychology in Blackburn for specialist assessment and psychological services. We offer ADHD assessments, autism assessments, and a full range of therapy for all ages.

Why Kew families choose Laburnum Psychology

Our practice offers a depth of specialist expertise in neurodevelopmental assessments that is less readily available closer to the CBD. Families from Kew often come to us following a referral from a paediatrician, GP, or school seeking an in-depth ADHD or autism assessment from a team with a strong track record. We also welcome self-referrals.

ADHD assessments

Our ADHD assessments are suitable for children from early primary school age through to adults. We take a comprehensive approach that draws on multiple sources of information and concludes with a written report that includes a clear clinical opinion and practical recommendations. Reports can be shared with schools, workplaces, or Medicare providers as needed.

Autism assessments

Our autism assessments use the ADOS-2 where indicated, alongside developmental history and standardised questionnaires. We see clients across the full spectrum of presentations, including those with high support needs, those who have historically been missed or misdiagnosed, and late-identified adults.

Psychology and counselling services

Beyond assessments, we offer a wide range of psychological services, including:

individual counselling,
family therapy,
children’s psychology,
relationship counselling,
and support for anxiety, depression, trauma, and other concerns.

Telehealth available

For Kew clients who prefer the flexibility of telehealth, many of our counselling and therapy services are available online. Please note that ADHD and autism assessments require at least some in-person components.
