Psychometric assessments

• Our Clinic offers comprehensive psychometric asessments for diagnosing issues related to learning problems, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and developmental difficulties. In additional to identifying issues that may warrant professional attention, these assessments can also provide recommendations that may assist with children’s school readiness, performance and general behaviour. Additionally, where children are intellectually gifted, it can be helpful to identify their areas of strength to enable educational programming to cater to their needs for stimulation and advanced learning opportunities.
