a comprehensive examination of your child’s developmental, emotional, behavioural and/or intellectual/academic presentation

registered psychology practitioners are regulated health professionals who can diagnose psychological disorders

an accurate diagnosis, which is often found in the conclusion of a psychological assessment report, is an important starting point in attaining appropriate support for your child

a diagnosis is not always appropriate or necessary, however, psychological assessment reports should always include thorough recommendations for positive change

individual therapy with children can help them learn to manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in more positive ways

often, a child’s negative mood/behaviour is in reaction to his or her environment

family therapy provides an opportunity for all participating family members to express their thoughts, feelings, and goals, so that everyone may be validated and contribute towards positive change

family therapy helps family members more clearly understand their roles in the child’s difficulties, so that a plan for positive change in the whole family may be developed, increasing the likelihood of positive change in the child
