Autism Testing

Riverina Counselling offers Autism testing. This is done privately and is further broken down in the ‘Autism Testing’ under what we treat about how the process works.

Functional Capacity Assessment

Riverina Counselling is able to offer testing of Functional Capacity and Adaptive Behaviour. This can aid when going for initial access or reviews for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) or work and vocational based assessment.

We provide supervision to social works and counsellors face to face and via telehealth, anywhere in Australia. If you are new or experienced clinician, we aim to tailor supervision to meet your needs.
