Our comprehensive intellectual disability assessments evaluate a range of cognitive and adaptive skills. Key components of our assessment:
1. Adaptive Skills and Functioning
This component assesses your ability to perform everyday tasks independently.
We evaluate communication skills: understanding and expressing language, including daily living skills including activities like eating, dressing, and personal hygiene.
and social skills: interacting with others and building relationships.
2. Questionnaires
We utilise standardised questionnaires to measure your adaptive functioning in real-life settings. These assessments provide valuable insights into your abilities and limitations.
These assessments help identify learning disabilities, developmental delays, and intellectual disabilities. The results can be invaluable in securing necessary support, such as school and government funding, and accommodations.
Intelligence testing provides valuable insights into your cognitive abilities. At The Wellness Practice in Beerwah, we assess the following key areas:
Verbal comprehension: understanding and expressing language
Perceptual reasoning: visual and spatial problem-solving skills
Working memory and processing speed: cognitive efficiency
Fluid reasoning: adaptive and problem-solving abilities
Identifying intellectual giftedness or learning and intellectual difficulties early on can significantly impact academic and workplace success.
Our assessment process is designed to be comprehensive, efficient, and personalised. Here’s what you can expect:
Initial interview: we’ll begin with a detailed interview to gather information about your background, developmental history, and any concerns you may have. This helps us tailor the assessment to your individual needs.
Testing sessions: during the testing sessions, we’ll administer a variety of assessments and questionnaires designed to measure cognitive abilities, adaptive skills, and other relevant areas. We’ll work at a pace that is comfortable for you and ensure that you understand the tasks.
Feedback session: after completing the assessment, we’ll schedule a feedback session to discuss the results.

An intellectual disability is assessed using standardised IQ tests to measure cognitive abilities and adaptive behaviour assessments to evaluate practical skills like communication, self-care, and social interaction. The results help determine how the disability impacts daily functioning and development.
An intelligence test involves activities such as solving puzzles, answering questions, and completing memory or problem-solving tasks. These tasks are designed to assess cognitive areas like reasoning, understanding, and decision-making. The process is structured, and results provide a clear picture of intellectual strengths and areas for improvement.
A social skills assessment evaluates an individual’s ability to communicate effectively, interpret social cues, and build relationships. It is beneficial for anyone experiencing challenges in social interactions, particularly individuals with Autism, ADHD, or social anxiety. The assessment guides tailored strategies to improve social confidence and functionality.
