Neuropsychological Assessments:
A neuropsychological assessment explores the relationship between the brain and everyday functioning. The purpose is to provide an understanding of how a person thinks, learns and processes the world. This type of assessment is especially helpful when there are concerns about learning, attention, behaviour, memory, overall development, after a head injury, or in the case of cognitive decline.

The Process:
The first step is to fill out the contact form. This will give us information about your concerns. If you are not sure, please say so and we can figure it out together.
From there, we will set up some appointment times to complete the assessment activities. Assessments are usually completed over two (sometimes more) sessions.
Before the appointments you will be sent some forms to complete. After the appointments, additional information is gathered e.g. from school, through questionnaires. A full report will then be written and sent to you, with the opportunity to discuss the findings.
As each child is unique and every situation is different the assessment process and follow up may be different for each family.
