Our team of experienced Neuropsychologists and Clinical Psychologists provide comprehensive, evidence-based assessment and support services for those experiencing dementia or memory problems. 

Questions we can help answer

  • Is it possible that I have dementia?
  • If it is not dementia, then what is causing my memory decline?
  • If I do have dementia, what type do I have?
  • What can I expect in the future?
  • Can I keep driving?
  • My family member with dementia is expressing some concerning behaviours, how can we help them with this?
  • How can I support my family member in moving into and adjusting to an aged care facility?
  • Does my family member have capacity to make decisions, such as consenting to medical treatment, or deciding where she wants to live?
  • How do we cope with this diagnosis as a family?
