Assessment Info

I am able to offer assessments and consultations for children to identify and better understand the impact of sensory processing and related difficulties on their daily lives. I also offer Sensory Environmental assessments for schools and companies.

Full Assessment (2.5-3 hour assessment, written report, feedback session - £765):

The full assessment can be completed at your home, at your child's

school, my therapy room or a combination of the venues. A range of

standardised tests and observations will be used to assess sensory

processing, fine and gross motor skills, visual perceptual skills.

Based on the assessment a report will be compiled and a feedback session arranged where the outcome of the assessment and the recommendations

will be discussed. The feedback session is usually over the phone. Face-

to-face feedback can be arranged but travel time will be charged.

Assessment/report to inform an EHCP application (2.5-3 hour assessment, written report - £850):

A 2.5-3 hour assessment (as described above) will be completed. A school

observation is recommended (see below for additional cost). I do not write

specific targets/goals for the EHCP, however information from the report

can be used to inform the EHCP. I do not provide reports to appeal an

EHCP and I do not attend tribunals as an expert witness.

Assessment to contribute towards diagnosing Dyspraxia (1.5 hour assessment, written report, feedback session - £425):

The assessment can be completed at your child's home, school or my

therapy room. The Movement ABC-3, The Beery-VMI and a selection of

clinical observations will be completed during the assessment. The

assessment is usually requested by a Paediatrician to contribute to their

assessment to diagnose Dyspraxia.

School Observation (50 minute observation and 10 minute teacher feedback - £85/hour):

A school observation can be completed in addition to the full assessment if

requested by parents and feedback will be provided to the parents and

school.

School Consultation (45 minute observation and 15 minute teacher feedback - £85/hour):

A school can also request an assessment regarding a specific area of

concern e.g. fine motor skills, including handwriting; gross motor skills;

self-regulation, sensory processing difficulties. Advice regarding the

specific area of concern will be provided to the school. If a report is

required the cost will be discussed at the time.

Sensory Environmental Assessment (3 hour assessment, written report, 1 hour feedback session - £970):

The assessment includes observing and identifying the sensory aspects in

an environment that can contribute to people feeling regulated and

focused or dysregulated and dystracted. The assessment takes

approximately 3 hours but might vary depending on the size of the

environment.

Based on the assessment a report will be compiled and a feedback session

will be arranged to discuss the recommendations from the report. The

feedback session is usually over the phone. Face-to-face feedback can be

arranged but travel time will be charged.

Travel costs will be charged at 65p/mile. If travel time exceeds 30 minutes a further £30 will be added per half an hour to cover time spent travelling.
