Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy and Autism Assessments for Adults - Online, Across Australia
Affirming psychologists who provide warmth, safety, and understanding
At The Neuro Nurture Collective, we offer online therapy and autism assessments for adults who are autistic, ADHDers (or AUDHDers!), or exploring their neurotype. Our psychologists are neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed - which means we see your brain as different, not broken. Whether you're self-identifying, late-diagnosed, or still figuring things out, you'll find a warm, non-judgmental space here. We understand the autistic/ADHDer adult experience - including but of course not limited to masking, autistic burnout, parenting, and co-occurring anxiety and depression.
Everything is online, Australia-wide, and we've made booking as easy as possible - no phone calls, no back-and-forth emails, just a simple online portal.
You might be coming to us with one of these concerns, or (what we see more commonly) a mix of several:
Neurodivergent identity & late diagnosis Working out what autism or ADHD means for you as an adult - especially if you've only recently found out, or are still in the process of figuring it out
Autistic burnout & exhaustion The deep, bone-tired feeling that comes from years of masking, pushing through, and not having the right support
AuDHD - navigating both When autism and ADHD overlap and everything feels twice as complicated
Anxiety & overwhelm Including social anxiety, sensory overwhelm, panic, and the kind of anxiety that's been with you so long it just feels like your personality
Emotional regulation Big feelings, shutdowns, meltdowns, or the opposite - feeling very little at all
Depression Especially when it's tangled up with burnout, masking, or not feeling understood
Body image & self-esteem Including the nuanced and complex relationship many autistic/ADHDers have with their bodies and sense of self
ND parenting & family dynamics Parenting as a neurodivergent person, raising neurodivergent kids, or navigating family relationships that feel complicated
Daily tasks & executive function The gap between what you want to do and what you can actually do
Sleep & stress Because both are often incredibly difficult for autistic/ADHDer adults
We are proud allies of the LGBTQIA+ community and warmly welcome clients of all identities, backgrounds, and experiences. We approach every session with genuine respect for who you are and how you experience the world. We use a range of evidence-based therapies, but we don't take a one-size-fits-all approach. We adapt to you, your neurotype, and your lived experience rather than asking you to fit into a standardised clinical framework.
We also recognise that warm, collaborative and kind care involves more than clinical training. We're committed to ongoing reflection on our privilege, and to approaching every client relationship with cultural humility - an awareness that your background, identity, and experiences shape your world in ways that deserve to be understood, and not assumed or left unacknowledged.
We offer both therapy and autism assessments for adults, all online across Australia.
1.
Create your portal account
Register on our online portal here. From there, you can look at clinician availability and book a therapy session or autism assessment directly at whatever time of day works for you.
2.
Complete a short intake form
Once you've booked, we'll email you a brief intake and consent form. It takes around 10 minutes and helps your psychologist understand a little about you before your first session. If you're using a Mental Health Care Plan, we'll also ask you to forward that through. Everything is handled by email, with no phone calls needed.
3.
Join your session
We'll send you a secure Telehealth link before your appointment. There's nothing to download - just click the link and you're in. Sessions are conducted through Zanda's encrypted platform, fully compliant with Australian privacy laws, so your information is always safe.
Payment is handled simply and securely through our portal. Card details are stored by Stripe, one of the world's most trusted payment platforms, and you'll never be charged without notice.
It's important to us that you know exactly what to expect before you book and don't encounter surprises along the way. Our fees are as follows:
Therapy sessions - $250 per session If you have a Mental Health Care Plan (referral from your GP), Medicare will rebate $98.95 per session, bringing your out-of-pocket cost to $151.05. You can access up to 10 rebated sessions per calendar year. Not sure if you have one or how to get one? [Here's a simple guide.]
Autism Assessment - $1,950 (with comprehensive report) Includes a full diagnostic assessment and detailed written report, suitable for workplace accommodations, study supports, to inform therapy, and personal understanding.
Autism Assessment - $1,450 (with brief outcome letter) Includes a full diagnostic assessment with a written outcome letter. A good option if you're looking for clarity without the full report.
We welcome privately paying clients, Mental Health Care Plans, and Self-Managed NDIS. We're not currently able to offer bulk billing or Eating Disorder Plans.
