Comprehensive Psychological Assessments
Each assessment is tailored to age, presentation, strengths, goals, and context.
Our Fees
At Insight Collective, we understand that seeking an assessment can feel overwhelming. Our aim is to make the process clear, supportive, and collaborative, so families know exactly what to expect and feel confident every step of the way.
All assessments are tailored to your child’s unique strengths and needs, and are conducted using evidence-based tools. We take the time needed to truly understand your child, and to provide practical, meaningful recommendations for home and school.
All assessments include:
01.
A comprehensive intake session (60–90 minutes) to understand your child’s history and current concerns
02.
Standardised assessment tools selected specifically for your child
03.
A comprehensive written report with clear explanations and recommendations
04.
A feedback session (60 minutes) to talk through the results, answer questions, and plan next steps together
Fees
Our fees are informed by the Australian Psychological Society (APS) Suggested Fee Schedule (2025–2026), which lists a recommended fee of $311 for a standard 50–60 minute consultation.
Our assessment fees reflect the time, specialist expertise, preparation, and reporting involved in providing thorough, evidence-based psychological assessments. All fees are discussed with families in advance so you can make informed decisions about proceeding.
