Psychological Assessment @ Kinark Autism Services

Kinark offers a range of psychological assessments for children and youth up to age 18. A psychological assessment is used to better understand a child or youth’s development, thinking, learning, emotions, behaviour and-or day-to-day functioning. The asessments include a combination of caregiver interviews and questionnaires, interview (if applicable) and observation of your child, and one-to-one testing activities with your child. Some portions of an assessment require in-person testing while other portions can be done virtually. Following the assessment, a psychologist will discuss the results with you and a written report will be provided. The information gathered through assessments helps to support you in making informed decisions about your child’s health care and educational needs and helps you access the right community resources.
