I'm bringing my child in for an appointment - can my other children wait in the waiting area?

We require that one parent be available at all times during your child's session - younger siblings may not be left unattended in the waiting area, as there are other professionals and clients working in the surrounding offices - any noise or disturbance in the office is highly disruptive to their therapyParental involvement is important for effective therapy - if you do need to bring other children along, in order to make the most of your time, we require a second adult to be present to supervise any other children or siblings waiting in the office.

What type of assessments do you offer?

Psychoeducational Assessment- Our psychoeducational assessments evaluate cognitive, academic, and social-emotional/behavioural functioning and are used to evaluate diagnoses related to learning, attention regulation, and emotional-behavioural regulation. From start to finish we quote approximately 12-13 hours for these assessments, this is broken down into a 1 hour history/intake meeting, 4-5 hours of testing with the child, file reviews and consultations with parents/teachers, in addition to 6 hours of report writing time, and a final feedback meeting to discuss the results and how best to move forward.  

Gifted Assessment- Our gifted assessments evaluate cognitive functioning only, usually to determine eligibility for Gifted coding or admission into a charter school. We quote 5 hours for these assessments, which is broken down into a .5 hour history/intake meeting, 2 hours of testing, two hours of report writing, and a 5 hour feedback meeting to discuss the results.
