A comprehensive assessment conducted at MindSpace, led by trained psychologists, is instrumental in identifying your child's precise learning needs. It provides a diagnosis that can be utilized for school accommodations, Individualized Education Programs (IEP), or exam support. This assessment is not only valuable in times of crisis but also recommended for new couples aiming to build tools for a strong, healthy, and happy relationship. MindSpace emphasizes the importance of children having access to the learning support necessary for their success.

Utilizing standardized tools like WISC-V, WIAT III, BASC-2, BECK’S YOUTH INVENTORY, BGT, and others, psychoeducational assessments at MindSpace aim to identify cognitive and academic strengths and weaknesses. These assessments encompass intelligence and educational tests, helping determine developmental delays, learning concerns, or developmental disorders.

The process includes an initial meeting and history-taking with parents, followed by a psychoeducational evaluation. The subsequent action plan and documentation provide a roadmap for ongoing support.

MindSpace also extends its expertise to adult clinical diagnostic assessments, including personality assessments. If you have specific assessment requirements, the process can be tailored to meet your needs.

Assessments are crucial when children display red flags such as:
  • Addiction
  • Concentration problems
  • Trouble learning
  • Difficulties in reading, writing, spelling, or math
  • Forgetfulness
  • Adjustment disorder
  • Anxiety
  • Avoidance of school
  • Regression
