Services
Cognitive Assessments
Cognitive assessments evaluate strengths and difficulties in thinking skills, memory, and processing speed. These assessments identify specific learning needs such as dyslexia or dyscalculia. Tailored recommendations help schools and parents implement effective educational strategies.
Dyslexia Screening
Dyslexia screening assesses literacy skills, including reading, spelling, and writing. It identifies barriers to learning and provides targeted strategies to support academic progress. This service benefits children and adults seeking formal diagnosis or exam accommodations.
Emotional Support
Emotional support assessments explore anxiety, self-esteem, and behavioural challenges. Through collaborative consultations, practical interventions are developed to enhance emotional resilience and social skills for children and young people.
Autism Screening
Autism screening evaluates social communication and sensory processing needs. While not a medical diagnosis, this assessment informs support strategies for schools and families, focusing on creating inclusive environments.
EFT Therapy
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) therapy addresses anxiety, anger, and self-confidence issues. This evidence-based approach uses tapping techniques to reduce emotional distress, supporting both children and adults in managing stress.
