As a psychologist with over 30 years of clinical experience working with kids teens and parents I am SO excited to reconnect with research work. My PhD is focussed on understanding PDA and extreme demand avoidance in kids and teens. The program of research we are planning looks to explore EDA in several ways: 1. The development of an assessment tool that directly measures EDA in kids and teens - this is a world first. 2. Explore EDA beyond autism to include ADHD and generalised anxiety disorder. 3. Measuring the quality of life for parents and the functional impact of EDA in kids and teens. It was brilliant to connect with other researchers doing brave and bold things in the area of PDA - watch this space!

The inaugural PDA conference in Perth. Well done to Heidi Brandis and team. A brilliant event 👏👏👏

Our Psychologist Kristen is presenting at The 14th Autism Europe International Congress in Dublin Ireland this Friday. Congratulations to Kristen on this opportunity to present internationally and to access all the wonderful learnings of the other presenters also sharing their research and wisdom. Kristen’s presentation is on the research she completed around the impact of experienced stigma on camouflaging and mental health in young adults.

The AAPi Professional Guidance Team frequently receives requests from members seeking a clear resource that outlines the diagnostic capabilities of registered psychologists in Australia.

AAPi strongly advocates for recognition of the full scope of practice of all registered psychologists.

To assist our members, we have developed the following resource which outlines that all psychologists with general registration are qualified to assess, diagnose, and provide clinical opinions on mental health conditions. This includes the ability to support recommendations for educational accommodations, functional assessments, disability supports, and employment-related considerations.
