ADHD assessment in Tasmania
Seen ADHD offers online ADHD assessment to adults across Tasmania - from Hobart and Launceston to Devonport, Burnie and rural communities. A registered psychologist leads a structured assessment by secure video, with psychiatrist input where appropriate. No ferry, no flight, no mainland trip.
Tasmania's specialist pool is small, and the people who do assess adult ADHD are concentrated in the larger centres. If you live in Hobart or Launceston you may still wait; if you're in Devonport, Burnie, the East Coast, the Huon or the Central Highlands, the nearest option can feel a long drive away. A video pathway removes the geography from the equation entirely.
Plenty of Tasmanians have been told the next step is to fly across Bass Strait to see someone in Melbourne. That means flights, a night away and time off work, all before any actual assessment happens. Seeing a psychologist and psychiatrist remotely means the assessment comes to your kitchen table instead of the other way around.
Our model keeps the clinical roles clear. Registered psychologists carry out the in-depth assessment - your history, how attention and impulsivity show up day to day, screening tools and ruling other things in or out. Where the picture points towards ADHD, a psychiatrist (medically qualified) reviews it, confirms or excludes the diagnosis, and considers treatment, including whether medication is clinically appropriate, in shared care with your GP.
A clear outcome matters either way. Not everyone assessed meets the criteria for ADHD, and a well-explained "no" - with a sense of what might fit better - is a genuinely useful result, not a wasted appointment.
