Learning Disability and ADHD Assessments

How We Can Help

Keeping the Assessment Process as Comfortable and Stress-Free as Possible

Psychoeducational Assessments are offered in a comfortable home office setting, where students "visit with Miss Shawna" (we never use the word testing!) to complete a variety of learning tasks, and have the opportunity to engage in some fun activities like baking, Lego building, jumping on the trampoline, or going for a short walk during break times. A home office setting is not as formal, but we have found this option works well for many students, especially for those who may be a little more nervous about being seen in their school or attending an appointment in a clinic setting. f you would rather an Assessment be done at a library or in a community office setting, please just let us know and we can coordinate this for you.

All paperwork is sent electronically and initial parent consultations can be held virtually if preferred, saving parents from having to take time off of work. We also offer to meet students virtually ahead of time as well, so they know who they are meeting with, and what to expect before their first session. We know this process can be overwhelming, and so we make every effort to help parents and students feel as comfortable and confident as possible. I

Your comfort and peace of mind is top priority from start to finish.

Why We Do What We Do

We know that life and learning is easier and more enjoyable when a student's learning profile and feelings are fully understood. That's why we conduct comprehensive Psychoeducational Assessments -so we know how a student learns in terms of their abilities, strengths, and frustration points. In order for a student to be as successful as possible, we must first understand how they learn and how they feel. Knowing these things can provide great insight into their needs at home and school.

We also understand that children are complex and often have many needs, and so we often collaborate with a team of trusted professionals who are dedicated to helping children and families.

Concerns We Address & Services Offered

If you are concerned that your child may have a learning, behavioural or emotional challenge, a Psychoeducational Assessment may help identify these challenges, and can provide recommendations and resources to help. An Assessment provides information about how children learn, how children feel, specific skills, and areas which may benefit from remediation. Please click on our Assessment page for more detailed information about the Psychoeducational Assessment process.

In addition to providing Psychoeducational Assessment services, we also offer a variety of other services, including private tutoring, respite care & life skills support, counselling/psychotherapy, and Speech/Language services. Click here for more information.
