Psychological Assessments

When your child is struggling at school, having difficulty paying attention, falling behind academically, or experiencing emotional or social challenges, it can be difficult to understand why. A psychological assessment provides a comprehensive picture of your child’s strengths, challenges, and individual way of learning and functioning. It can help clarify what may be contributing to their difficulties and identify the supports that can make a meaningful difference.

At Gladiola Psychology Center, we provide individualized psychological assessments for children, adolescents, and young adults.
Our assessments may help clarify concerns related to:

  • ADHD and attention
  • Learning disabilities
  • Reading and dyslexia
  • Writing and spelling
  • Mathematics
  • Executive functioning
  • Cognitive abilities and giftedness
  • Autism and developmental differences
  • Anxiety and emotional functioning
  • School and academic difficulties


Depending on your child’s needs, an assessment may include cognitive, academic, attention, memory, executive-functioning, social-emotional, and behavioural measures.
