Comprehensive individualized psychoeducational assessments

 

The exclusive focus of my practice as an educational psychologist is comprehensive individualized psychoeducational assessments for anglophone students (grade 1 or higher) attending English or French schools

I take pride in offering a personalized and consistent approach to assessment. Unlike many clinics, I don’t rely on students or trainees for testing or report preparation. I personally carry out every part of the assessment process - from the parent meetings to the testing sessions to the final report - so every evaluation is handled with care, expertise, and continuity from start to finish.

​

Evaluations involve the administration of various psychological and neuropsychological tests, observation of testing behaviour and work habits, as well as the gathering of information regarding the student's specific developmental, academic, social/emotional, behavioural, medical, and family history from parents and teachers.

 

This extensive assessment will provide a picture of the student's unique profile, including:

- Cognitive abilities

- Processing skills

- Attentional skills

- Executive functioning skills

- Academic achievement (in English or French)

- Social and emotional functioning 

 

The following can then be identified/diagnosed:

- Strengths and weaknesses

- Learning difficulties

- Specific learning disorders (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, etc.)

- Attentional problems (i.e., ADHD, with or without hyperactivity)

- Cognitive weaknesses or intellectual delays/disabilities

- Behaviour or emotional difficulties

- etc.

​

Post-assessment follow-up

 

After the assessment process has been completed and results

and recommendations have been provided to you at the 

feedback meeting, you may have follow-up questions

or need guidance on the implementation of various

recommendations. Individual sessions can therefore

be arranged on an hourly basis.
