Psychological Assessments

Psychologists assist when a child has behavioural difficulties or learning challenges.

What to expect from an assessment:

To understand what is happening, a psychologist at our Centre will often spend time observing the child, gathering information from the adults in the child’s life and complete standardized assessments. After all of this information is gathered, the psychologist will provide an explanation of the challenges that a child is experiencing.  This explanation may come in the form of a diagnosis if that is what is concluded at the end of the assessment.  The Psychologist will then provide a written assessment report to parents providing assessment results, strategies and referrals that will assist the family in supporting their child.

  • We listen to your concerns and experiences to understand how your child reacts in different environments
  • We will suggest strategies that will help you support your child
  • For some children, a diagnosis is provided, if relevant
  • You will receive a comprehensive report of your child’s strengths and needs with suggestions
