A Psychological Assessment is comprised of a series of tests and other assessment tools to measure and observe a client’s behavior to arrive at a diagnosis or to build a profile of their capabilities and personality. The results of the Assessment can be used to guide treatment and/or make recommendations for school placement or exam accommodations.
The type of Assessment to be conducted is determined by the needs of the client. Parents are advised on which test tools and techniques are most suitable to collect the necessary information for their child at that point in time.
