Diagnostic Uncertainty?
Are you or a loved one struggling with symptoms that may be related to neurodivergence? Are you querying autism, ADHD, or learning difficulties? Do you find relationships or communication difficult? Is learning and focusing difficult? Unsure of how to understand, manage or explain these challenges?
Unclear symptoms can significantly impact daily life, causing frustration, confusion, and difficulty in personal, academic, or work-related settings. Without comprehensive assessment to guide support needs, these challenges may persist, affecting self-esteem, relationships, mental health and long-term success.
Millstream psychology specialises in neurodevelopmental assessment, follows national assessment guidelines and engages in comprehensive assessment processes, including daycare/school visits.
Social-Emotional Wellness
Is your child struggling to self-regulate and demonstrating impulsive behaviours like lashing out? Do you find it difficult to manage their emotions or behaviours? Are these issues affecting your relationships with them?
If your child is having trouble controlling their emotions and is acting impulsively, like lashing out, it can be really challenging. You might also be finding it hard to manage their behavior and emotions, which could be impacting your relationship with them.
You’re not alone in this—many parents face similar struggles. It’s important to find effective ways to help your child manage their emotions and behavior. Together, we can work on strategies to support your child and improve your relationship with them.
Mental health Vulnerability?
Are you struggling with mental health difficulties such as depression, anxiety or life stressors? Do you find it difficult to manage your emotions, thoughts or behaviours? Are these issues affecting your relationships, work or daily life?
Mental health problems can contribute to significant emotional pain and distress, impacting aspects of living. Accompanying feelings of isolation and overwhelm can exist, as well as physical symptoms. Millstream Psychology offers an emotionally safe and confidential space to explore your experiences using evidenced therapies and techniques. Clinicians can support you with your goals including promotion of self-management skills, helpful coping skills, and increased emotional resilience.

Millstream Psychology accepts GP and Paediatrician referrals for ADHD or ASD psychological assessment.
The Austim Spectrum Disorder (ASD) National Assessment Guidelines were updated in 2023. Under the new guidelines, a Millstream Psychology Clinical Psychologist can provide a Lead Practioner Diagnostic Evaluation in collaboration with a Paediatric Medical Practitioner when there are no presenting diagnostic complexities. When complex assessment considerations exist, a consensus team, including a Speech Pathologist, will be initiated.
Under the Better Access Initiative, you can choose any Psychologist you wish to engage in services with, despite whom the GP has addressed the referral to.
