Assessments

A psycho-educational assessment involves a standardized assessment of intellectual and academic abilities. Together with Dr. Lin and Associates, Julia assists Dr. Merry C. Lin, CPysch, in performing psycho-educational and diagnostic testing for children, teens, and adults.

These customized assessments are tailored to evaluate the various learning styles or processing differences that may impact a person’s effectiveness at school, work, and in day-to-day functioning. Testing can encompass the following:

Giftedness
ADHD
Autism
Learning disabilities
Intellectual disabilities
Behavioural/emotional issues
Mental health issues (Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, etc.)

Parents/Caregivers

Children can have difficulties from time to time. However, if you find that your child continues to struggle even after accommodations have been provided, it would be wise to consider an assessment. Signs that your child might benefit from a psycho-educational assessment are academic difficulties, like processing instructions, or poor performance in reading, writing, spelling, or math. Additionally, there could be increased anxiety or school refusal, lack of motivation or internalizing behaviour. Alternately, a worsening outward attitude (uncharacteristic of your child or age-range) or disruptive behaviour, could also be the result of a child’s struggles with the academic material, and not just “bad” behaviour. For more information on assessments for both kids or adults, you can contact me directly using the information below.
