Psychoeducational
Assessments

A comprehensive psychoeducational assessment helps you understand the unique way you or your child learns, thinks, and processes information. By exploring cognitive strengths, academic skills, and emotional processes, we identify what can support success — and what may be getting in the way.

Psychoeducational assessments can clarify whether one meets the criteria for a learning, cognitive, attentional, or a mental health diagnosis. Our assessments always include clear, personalized recommendations for school, home, and daily life. The goal is to give you insight, direction, and a plan that truly supports growth and confidence.

What should
you expect?

  • We meet for a clinical interview to discuss your or your child’s developmental history, school performance, strengths and specific concerns, and create a tailored assessment plan.

  • We meet with you or your child one-on-one and use standardized clinical tools to measure cognitive abilites, memory, attention, and academic skills. We will work at the individual’s pace- this can take between 4-9 hours. For younger children we usually spread this across a few days. We book during the day so the individual is feeling fresh and alert.

  • We analyze the testing data, report cards, previous reports, and questionnaire data gathered from you, your child/adolescent, and where applicable, teachers, coaches, other health care providers, to provide a holistic view of the individual across different environments. 

  • The information will be presented in a feedback session where we review findings, explain any diagnoses, and discuss recommendations for how to be best supported at home and at school/post-secondary/workplace.


    We also provide a child/adolescent friendly feedback session where we explain results in a developmentally appropriate way to your child.

  • We provide you with a detailed document containing test scores, clinical observations, and tailored recommendations for how to be best supported at home and at school/post-secondary/workplace. The report will not be sent to anyone without your and/or your child’s consent.  You may find it helpful to share the report with other medical/mental health providers or the school/post-secondary for academic planning (IEP and IPRC meetings, post secondary accommodations).
