ADHD Assessment in Truganina
Reliance Care and Support in Truganina provides ADHD assessments for children, adolescents and adults through a compassionate, community-based team. Our clinicians work with individuals and families to understand attention and behavioural patterns in a supportive, culturally sensitive setting, and appointments are open to the local community.
What is an ADHD assessment?
An ADHD assessment is a structured process where our team explores attention, impulse control and daily functioning to understand whether ADHD may be present. It usually involves interviews, questionnaires and feedback from family or teachers, giving a clear picture of your needs so the right support can be discussed.
Who we help in Truganina
We help school-aged children and adolescents, adults managing work or study, and NDIS participants seeking behaviour and functional support. Our team also welcomes self-referred individuals, carers and families from culturally diverse communities across Melbourne's west.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral to book an ADHD assessment?
No, a referral is not required to make your first appointment, though having one from your GP may help you access Medicare rebates for psychology services. Our reception team can explain how this works when you call or book online.
What should I expect during an ADHD assessment?
You can expect a friendly, structured conversation about attention, behaviour and daily life, often alongside questionnaires and feedback from family or teachers. The goal is to build a complete picture of your needs in a comfortable, supportive setting.
Can NDIS funding cover an ADHD assessment?
NDIS participants may be able to use their plan for assessment and allied health support if this aligns with their goals. Our team can work with you and your plan manager to check eligibility and coordinate services.
Do you also offer speech pathology for children with ADHD?
Yes, our allied health team includes speech pathology for children who need communication support alongside their ADHD care. You can read our What to Expect from a Speech Pathology Assessment article to learn how this service works and how it may complement your child's plan.
How do I book an ADHD assessment at Reliance Care and Support?
You can book by calling our Truganina clinic or using our online booking form. Our reception team will find a time that suits you and answer any questions before your first visit.
