Our Services
Cognitive and Adaptive Functioning
Cognitive and adaptive functioning assessment evaluates an individual's intellectual abilities and daily living skills. It measures cognitive skills like reasoning and memory alongside adaptive skills such as communication and self-care. This comprehensive evaluation helps identify developmental disabilities and tailor interventions, guiding effective support strategies for improved daily functioning and overall well-being.
ADHD assessments evaluate attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity through clinical interviews, behavioral questionnaires, and observational reports. Standardised tests are also used to rule out other conditions. The assessment involves input from parents, teachers, and the individual to ensure a comprehensive understanding, guiding accurate diagnosis and tailored intervention strategies.
Attention Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD)
Learning Disorder
Learning disorder assessments evaluate educational performance and identify specific learning challenges in areas such as reading, writing, or math. These assessments include standardised tests, behavioural observations, and input from teachers and parents. The goal is to understand the individual's strengths and weaknesses, guiding effective interventions and tailored educational support strategies.
Autism assessments determine the presence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) through clinical interviews, observational assessments, and standardised questionnaires. We evaluate social communication skills, behavioral patterns, and developmental history. Input from parents and teachers is crucial, enabling a comprehensive understanding that informs diagnosis and guides tailored intervention strategies for support.
