Watch ANTS FASD clinic video

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) is an umbrella term used to describe the diverse range of physical, cognitive, and behavioral impairments caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol. FASD is a lifelong condition. Around 2–5% of the population are thought to have FASD.

What does the ANTS Adult FASD Clinic do?

At the ANTS Adult FASD Clinic, we see adults with a suspected diagnosis of FASD for diagnostic assessments. If a diagnosis is made, we can then see the person for cognitive rehabilitation and/or other interventions to help them better cope with the effects of FASD.

Who would benefit from the ANTS Adult FASD Clinic?

This clinic was developed to clarify diagnosis for adults who may be living with FASD and were never previously assessed for this condition.

It benefits individuals who struggle with memory, language, attention, emotion regulation, or higher-level thinking skills, and who know or suspect that their birth mother consumed alcohol during pregnancy.

Adult FASD Assessment Costs

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) diagnostic assessments involve more comprehensive testing than standard neuropsychological assessments. Costs start from $3,816.00.

Hardship discounts may be available for individuals who are not receiving third-party funding (e.g., NDIS, insurance, WorkCover).
