Fortify Health Group provides a wide range of supports, including allied health, NDIS services and Multicultural Mental Health.
Fortify Health Group offers psychological assessments that diagnose and evaluate the functional impact of mental health conditions or disabilities. Our assessments aim to identify and diagnose mental health conditions or disabilities based on the criteria outlined in the DSM-TR.
We strive to provide individuals with a clear picture of the functional impact of their mental health condition or disability. This knowledge can help guide treatment plans and support individuals in accessing the resources and accommodations they may need to thrive.
NOTE: Assessment packages listed below apply to psychological testing only.
A diagnostic assessment is conducted by a psychologist and offers comprehensive evaluations for a range of cognitive and neurodevelopment disorders. These assessments provide in-depth analysis and understanding of conditions that impact brain development, cognitive functioning, and adaptive skills.

Functional Capacity Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that focuses on understanding and evaluating an individual’s ability to conduct daily life independently psychological, emotional, and functional abilities. This assessment involves a thorough examination of various aspects, including mental health, social functioning, and overall well-being. The primary goal of the assessment is to identify and comprehend the individual’s capabilities in these areas. It helps in establishing an accurate diagnosis, developing customised treatment plans, and providing recommendations for support services. By assessing the psychosocial and functional aspects, this evaluation provides valuable insights into an individual’s strengths, challenges, and needs, empowering them to receive appropriate support and interventions.
Fees are an approximation only and are dependent on a variety of factors, such as number and types of assessments required, supporting evidence already available from other practitioners or the age of the participant (children often require more time for consultation with stakeholders such as parents and teachers).
Medicare rebates may be accessible for specific components of the assessment package.
