Psychoeducational Assessment Edmonton

What is a psychoeducational assessment?

 

A psychoeducational assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that helps us understand how a child, teen, or adult learns. It looks at cognitive abilities (like memory, attention, and problem-solving), academic skills (like reading, writing, and math), and emotional or behavioural factors that may be affecting learning. The goal is to uncover strengths and challenges so we can provide clear recommendations for support at school, home, or work.

 

Child Psychologists

Who might benefit from a psychoeducational assessment?

 

Anyone who is struggling with learning, attention, or performance in school or work could benefit. This includes children who are falling behind academically, students who seem bright but are underperforming, individuals who may have ADHD, a learning disability, or giftedness, and adults seeking accommodations for college or standardized testing.

Our team has extensive experience providing psychoeducational assessments, as this is the most common type of assessment our office completes. This combination of experience and our high level of education allows us to provide the most beneficial assessment services for you or your child.

 

Will this help my child get support at school?

 

Yes, in many cases. The report can be shared with your child’s school to help them access academic accommodations, Individualized Program Plans (IPPs), or additional learning supports. If ADHD or a learning disability is diagnosed, the assessment can also be used to advocate for adjustments such as extra time, quiet testing environments, or specific teaching strategies.
