Psychoeducational Assessment
What is a psychoeducational assessment?
A psychoeducational assessment is a specialized assessment that examines a person's unique learning abilities. It can be helpful for children and teens who are struggling academically or having difficulties with inattentiveness, organization, or behaviour. A psychoeducational assessment can help parents and teachers understand a child's unique strengths and challenges, and can identify the presence of a learning disability, intellectual disability, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, or giftedness. It also identifies helpful recommendations and accommodations for children in the classroom and can be used to advocate for your child in the school system.
