What an Online PTSD Assessment Involves

  • Confidential Video Consultation

    Your assessment begins with a clinical assessment during a 50-minute private video session. Your psychologist will determine which array of screeners and assessments will be most suitable and are delivered securely online, designed to protect your privacy while giving your psychologist the information they need. This step helps establish a safe starting point and ensures the assessment is grounded in accurate, real-world context,

  • Discussion of your experiences

    You’ll have the opportunity to talk through what you’ve been experiencing - from specific symptoms to the situations that trigger them. This conversation helps your psychologist understand how PTSD may be affecting your day-to-day life. It adds essential depth and nuance to the assessment, beyond what a standard checklist can capture.

  • Use of validated assessment tool/s

    Your psychologist will use evidence-based tools and structured measures that are widely recognised in PTSD assessment. These tools help identify patterns, symptom severity and how closely your experience aligns with diagnostic criteria. Using validated methods ensures the assessment is accurate, consistent and clinically reliable.

  • Feedback and recommendations

    Once the assessment is complete, you’ll receive clear, compassionate feedback that explains your results in plain language. Your psychologist will outline what the findings mean and suggest appropriate next steps, whether that’s therapy, further evaluation or tailored support. This gives you a grounded, practical path forward rather than leaving you with unanswered questions.

 FAQs about online PTSD assessments

  • You may benefit from a PTSD assessment if you’ve been experiencing ongoing stress, anxiety, nightmares, avoidance, or a constant sense of alertness after a difficult or traumatic event. If these symptoms are affecting your daily life, relationships, sleep, or ability to cope, an assessment can help you understand what’s happening and whether PTSD may be playing a role.

  • An online PTSD assessment offers convenience, privacy, and flexibility. You can speak with a qualified psychologist from the comfort of your own home, without needing to travel or sit in a waiting room. The online format also allows you to complete parts of the assessment at your own pace while still receiving expert guidance.

  • Once your assessment is complete, your psychologist will walk you through the findings in clear, supportive language. You’ll receive recommendations tailored to your needs - whether that’s therapy, further evaluation, or practical strategies for managing symptoms. The goal is to give you clarity and a clear path forward.

  • Online PTSD assessments use the same validated tools and clinical processes as in-person assessments. Many clients feel more comfortable sharing openly from home.

  • The length of the clinical assessment can vary, but most people can expect the full process to take place over 2-3 sessions — including assessments, clinical evaluation, discussion, and feedback — each session runs for 50 minutes. Your psychologist will guide the session so you have enough time to talk through what you’ve been experiencing.

  • If appropriate, your psychologist can provide a formal report (which will attract a fee) or diagnosis based on the assessment findings. This will depend on the tools used, your goals for the assessment, and your individual circumstances. Your psychologist will explain what can be provided and how it may be used.

  • All assessments are conducted by registered psychologists with training and experience in trauma and PTSD. They use evidence-based methods and follow ethical, professional standards to ensure your assessment is accurate, safe, and supportive.

  • Booking is simple — you can choose a time that suits you through our online booking system. Once booked, you’ll receive a confirmation email and a short intake form to complete before your session. After that, you’re all set for your online PTSD assessment.
