“Are you struggling to understand your child’s learning style or identify the root cause of their difficulties? Berry Collective Psychology offers a range of Educational and Diagnostic Assessments for clients of all ages.”
Our Educational and Diagnostic Assessments enable parents, caregivers, and family members to understand an individual’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. They can help maximize academic potential, clarify the nature of an individual’s difficulties, and answer queries about the presence of a disorder. Our Assessments can investigate for ADHD and Specific Learning Disorders such as Dyslexia and Dyscalculia. We also offer School Readiness Assessments to identify any areas of support required for the transition.
All assessments come with a feedback session during which you will receive all testing results, a comprehensive written report, and practical, evidence-based strategies to assist the individual to thrive. With your consent we can share the assessment results with other support people. If ongoing support is needed, we will provide considered recommendations for you. At Berry Collective Psychology we are committed to supporting you through your mental health journey.
COMMON REASONS FOR AN EDUCATIONAL OR DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT
- The teacher or educator said my child has been showing signs of learning difficulties
- My child has difficulty paying attention and is displaying some challenging behaviour
- Seeking practical recommendations based on our child's strengths and weaknesses due to her intellectual disability
- My teenager is having trouble concentrating
- My child is having social and academic difficulties
- I need a cognitive assessment to support an application for NDIS
How it works
Our assessments not only clarify potential disorders and answer queries, but also provide comprehensive written reports and practical, evidence-based strategies to help you succeed. Our psychologists offer interactive and non-threatening support throughout the process, ensuring your comfort and confidence.
