Psychology Assessment Tools
Send validated instruments, get scored results with severity bands, and turn them into ADHD and autism profiles, outcome letters and Medicare review evidence. Calm by default for the patients filling them in.
Validated psychology assessments: from core screening tools like the PHQ-9, GAD-7 and DASS-21 to specialist measures for trauma, autism and ADHD. Every assessment is scored with clinical severity bands, tracks patient progress over time, and exports to NDIS-ready reports. Designed for the way psychologists actually work.
Full Professional access for 30 days. No card.
Your psychology assessments: validated instruments across depression (PHQ-9, DASS-21), anxiety (GAD-7), ADHD (ASRS, WURS-25, WFIRS-S), autism (AQ-10, GQ-ASC, CATI), trauma (PCL-5, ITQ), and 10 more categories. Every assessment is scored the moment the patient hits submit, with published severity bands where available, instrument-scale scores, and progress tracking over time. ADHD Adult Assessment Profile combines 6 instruments into a single 29-minute battery. Clinical outcome letters auto-populate from scored data. Listed on the Cliniko Connected Apps directory.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about psychology assessments on ClientForms.
How do I screen for ADHD in adults?
For adult ADHD screening, start with the ASRS-6 (6 items, 2 minutes), a WHO-developed screener where 4+ symptoms in Part A suggests ADHD. For comprehensive assessment, use the ADHD Adult Assessment Profile: 6 validated instruments (ASRS, WURS-25, WFIRS-S, PHQ-9, GAD-7, AQ-10) in a single 29-minute patient session covering DSM-5 symptoms, childhood history, functional impairment across 7 domains, and comorbidity screening. All include instant scoring with clinical cutoffs.
What is the DASS-21 and what does it measure?
The DASS-21 (Depression Anxiety Stress Scales) measures three related states with 7 items each, taking 5 minutes. Subscale scores are doubled for interpretation. Depression: 0-9 normal, 10-13 mild, 14-20 moderate, 21-27 severe, 28+ extremely severe. Similar bands exist for anxiety and stress. DASS-21 is the most commonly used outcome measure among Australian counsellors (PACFA research).
What is the GQ-ASC autism test for women?
The GQ-ASC (Girls Questionnaire for Autism Spectrum Conditions) is a 21-item tool specifically designed for identifying autism in women and girls, taking 5 minutes. Unlike traditional tools developed with male presentations, GQ-ASC captures the female autism phenotype including social camouflaging, sensory sensitivities, and social fatigue. Scores above 56 suggest further assessment. This addresses the significant underdiagnosis of autism in women.
What is the difference between screening and diagnostic assessment?
Screening tools (GAD-7, PHQ-9, AQ-10) are brief questionnaires identifying who may need further evaluation; they provide probability scores, not diagnoses. Diagnostic assessments are comprehensive clinical processes gathering detailed history, observations, and collateral information to determine if diagnostic criteria are met. Both are valuable: screening prioritises who needs full assessment, saving assessment time.
Can I send multiple assessments at once?
Yes. Assessment batteries let you send multiple instruments in a single patient link. Pre-built batteries include ADHD Comprehensive (ASRS + WURS-25 + WFIRS-S + comorbidity screening, ~29 minutes), Adult Mental Health Screen (PHQ-9 + GAD-7 + K10, ~8 minutes), and Trauma Assessment (PCL-5 + DASS-21, ~15 minutes). You can also build custom batteries from any of the available instruments. Patients have 90 days to complete, with auto-save progress.
What clinical reports can I generate?
Clinical outcome letters auto-populate from your assessment data. Four letter types are available: progress updates, discharge summaries, Medicare Better Access reviews (6-session and 10-session), and NDIS support letters. Each letter embeds relevant scores with severity classifications, Reliable Change Index, and clinical cutoffs. Download as an editable Word document, add your clinical narrative, sign, and send to the GP.
Are the assessments neurodivergent-friendly?
Yes. All assessments include ND-friendly features: time estimates on every page, progress bars showing exactly how far through, maximum 7 questions per page to reduce cognitive load, day anchors showing exact date ranges, predictable layouts, and softer colour palettes. These features improve data quality for ADHD and autistic patients by reducing the cognitive burden of form completion.
Is patient data secure and where is it stored?
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256), stored on Australian servers in Sydney. ClientForms complies with Australian Privacy Principles. You retain full ownership of your data and can export or delete at any time.
