The Benefits of a Psychological Assessment
A neurodevelopmental assessment provides a detailed profile of an individual's cognitive, language, and social-emotional skills, which can...
- Diagnose Specific Conditions.
- Understand Strengths and Challenges.
- Access Support and Services.
- Address Functional Impairments.
- Improve Developmental Outcomes.
- Guide Medical and Behavioural Approaches.
An assessment does not always lead to a diagnosis
Diagnosis is based on test patterns, history, and clinical judgment.
Diagnosis must align with criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5 TR).
If a diagnosis is not made, recommendations and strategies will still be provide to help address the presenting problem.
