Assessment of Children & Adolescents

Your child may benefit from a psychoeducational assessment if:

your child struggles in one or more areas of school, such as reading, writing, or math

your child is struggling to stay focused, organized, and complete tasks

your child finds homework time frustrating; and it is often a battle to get things done

your child complains about school and does not feel good about him/herself as a learner

your child has social, emotional, or behavioral difficulties that are interfering at home and school

or your child is bored or or seems to be lacking challenge in the regular classroom

Assessment is available in the following areas:

Learning Disabilities

Attentional Difficulties/ADHD

Giftedness

Social or emotional concerns

A psychoeducational assessment can:

Provide parents with an understanding of their child's learning style as well as areas of strength and difficulty
Provide an accurate clinical diagnosis of learning or attentional issues
Provide a list of specific and concrete recommendations and strategies for home and school
Lead to specific supports within the school
Lead to a more positive and successful school experience

I offer entrance assessment for programs such as Westmount Charter School, GATE programs, and other private school admissions. Assessments are for preschool, Kindergarten, as well as school aged children.
