Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA’s)
Telehealth Functional Capacity Assessments through a neurodiversity-affirming lens.
Karenza works with autistic teens and adults (ages 11+).
Karenza will assess all aspects of daily life, including what’s going well and what’s difficult. She is able to offer a comprehensive overview through interview, standardised assessment and review of relevant reports and letters. You will be provided with a comprehensive and detailed report including recommendations for ongoing support.
The reports have a neurodiversity and gender affirming lens as they primarily use: identity first language (or language you prefer), chosen names/pronouns and offer a comprehensive list of affirming therapy recommendations. Choice of standardised assessment is a collaborative process with informed consent.
Karenza brings extensive clinical expertise to the assessment process, with experience supporting and training therapy teams in delivering best-practice functional capacity assessments.
Telehealth appointments are available nationally.
Note: Karenza is a mental health occupational therapist and as such doesn’t offer assessment for mobility devices/aids or more complex environmental/home modifications.
The Assessment Process
Fees
Karenza works with privately funded and NDIS clients. Clients who have NDIS packages may use their funding to cover the fees for services only if their package is self-managed or plan-managed.
A Functional Capacity Assessment typically involves approximately 10 -15 hours of clinical work. Fees generally range from $1939.90 to $2909.85, depending on the complexity of the assessment.
