Assessing Individuals
with Learning and Attention Difficulties
Are you wondering if you or your child may have a learning disability? Do you think you or your child might have ADHD? Do you wonder what is the best way to help your child learn? These questions and others can be answered through the administration of a psycho-educational assessment.
A Psycho-educational assessment is a means to determine cognitive and academic strengths in an individual. A psycho-educational assessment will assess the individual’s thinking skills, including how they process verbal and visual information, as well as their memory and attention skills. It will also look at how they perform on tests of academic skills. Further exploration of behaviour and social emotional issues may be included.
