Psychological Assessments
In our lives, there is little that we can control other than ourselves: how we think, how we feel, and how we respond to the circumstances we’re in. With a psychological assessment, you gain opportunities to precisely understand how you think, feel, and behave. A psychologist will be with you every step of the way in this process, from conducting the assessment, to sharing a detailed report of the results, and to making recommendations with your best interests at heart.

The world makes much less sense than you think. The coherence comes mostly from the way your mind works.

WHAT DO WE DO?
A registered psychologist uses a combination of interviews, observations, historical records (if any), and standardized testing tools to evaluate different aspects of a client’s intellectual, emotional, and behavioral functioning. For some clients who are learners, a psychological assessment may be required by a school to make decisions on student placement and design individualized learning plans.
HOW DO WE DO IT?
Assessments can cover skills of learning, organization, memory, problem solving, academic skills, behavior, emotions, and other areas of psychosocial development. Aside from a battery of psychological tests, the psychologist may undergo a series of clinical interviews with both client and the client’s stakeholders, and review relevant collateral data provided. All sources of information are imperative in creating a thorough and valid description of the individual, which can then be useful for personal, clinical, educational, or organizational decision-making. Various types of assessments will culminate in a respective report of results and recommendations prepared by the psychologist.
