Psychological Assessments

Understanding strengths, challenges, and the best path forward.

Our psychologists provide a range of assessments to help children, adolescents, and adults better understand their learning, behaviour, emotions, and development. Assessments give valuable insights that guide diagnosis, intervention, and support planning — at home, school, and within the community.

Areas of expertise extend across a variety of mental health, neurodevelopmental and cognitive conditions.
