Our Assessment options

We offer assessment services to meet the unique needs of children, adolescents and their parents, including psycho-educational assessments and ADHD assessments for children and teens age 8 to 18 at our east end Toronto office.

A comprehensive assessment can help answer questions about your child or teen’s learning abilities, educational barriers, or other thinking and behavioural challenges. We offer:

Psycho-educational assessment for ages 8 to 18

A psycho-educational assessment can help to provide a better understanding of your child’s learning profile. It allows parents, the school team, and the individual student to better understand their areas of strength as well as areas that need support and further development. If you are hoping to better understand your child’s learning challenges or have been asked by the school team to complete a psycho-educational assessment, this is the right place to start.

A psycho-educational assessment typically involves:

  1. A clinical interview with Caregivers/Parents and Child

  2. Review of School Records including past report cards

  3. Standardized testing for a variety of skills including thinking and reasoning skills, academic skills, memory, language processing, attention and executive functioning skills

  4. Parent & Teacher questionnaires

  5. Following the testing, a parent meeting is scheduled where the results are shared

  6. A written report (to be completed within 4 to 6 weeks after the testing is completed) 

ADHD Assessment for ages 8 to 18

An ADHD assessment is a comprehensive evaluation to accurately diagnose (or rule out) Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). A diagnosis can be important to help you better understand your child’s symptoms and can empower families to make more informed decisions to assist their child in improving their functioning at home and in the classroom.

An ADHD assessment involves:

  • A clinical interview with Caregivers/Parents and Child

  • Review of School Records including past report cards

  • Standardized testing for a variety of skills including thinking and reasoning skills, memory, attention and executive functioning skills

  • Parent & Teacher questionnaires

  • Following the testing, a parent meeting is scheduled where the results are shared

  • A written report (to be completed within 4 to 6 weeks after the testing is completed)
