Questions
Before your first visit
From what age can a child be assessed?
Signs of developmental differences can be assessed even before age two. If something worries you, don't wait – ask for advice.
Will we get a diagnosis at the first visit?
Not always. A comprehensive assessment takes several sessions and the opinion of several specialists, so the conclusion is accurate.
What if the assessment shows no disorder?
Then you get peace of mind and guidance on how to support development at home. A follow-up is recommended if needed.
How long is a session and what does it cost?
Sessions last 45–60 minutes. Call 072 232 363 for the current price list – we will give you all the information in advance.
Are conversations confidential?
Yes. All information is strictly confidential and handled in line with data protection law.
