UNDERSTANDING HOW YOU THINK, LEARN, AND EXPERIENCE THE WORLD CAN BE LIFE-CHANGING.
At Cowie Psychological Group, we offer comprehensive psychological and psychoeducational assessments designed to provide clarity, insight, and practical recommendations to support growth, learning, and well-being.
Our assessments are thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practice. We take the time to understand each individual’s unique experiences, strengths, and challenges and tailor every assessment accordingly.
WHO ARE ASSESSMENTS FOR?
Psychological and psychoeducational assessments may be helpful if you or your child are experiencing:
Ongoing academic or learning difficulties
Challenges with attention, focus, or organization
Concerns related to autism or social communication
Emotional or behavioural concerns impacting daily life
Questions about cognitive strengths, learning style, or executive functioning
A desire for greater self-understanding, diagnosis, or documentation for accommodations
Assessments can provide clarity, validation, and a clear path forward.
TYPES OF ASSESSMENTS OFFERED:
ADHD Assessments
ADHD assessments explore attention, impulse control, executive functioning, and emotional regulation. These assessments can help determine whether ADHD is present and how it impacts daily functioning at school, work, or home.
Autism Assessments
Autism assessments focus on social communication, behaviour patterns, sensory processing, and developmental history. Our approach is respectful, affirming, and strengths-based, with an emphasis on understanding how autism presents uniquely in each individual.
Psychoeducational Assessments
Psychoeducational assessments evaluate cognitive abilities, academic skills, learning processes, and executive functioning. These assessments are commonly used to identify learning disabilities and support access to school or workplace accommodations.
Psychological Assessments
Psychological assessments may explore emotional functioning, mental health concerns, personality factors, and behavioural patterns to support accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
