THE PSYCHOEDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENT PROCESS
A Comprehensive Approach to Understanding Learning
At Thought Wise, the assessment process involves a clinical interview with the student and parents, and a review of relevant records. The duration of the evaluation varies but generally includes 6 to 8 hours of testing over several days, plus time for scoring, interpretation, and report preparation.
PREPARING YOUR CHILD FOR THE ASSESSMENT
Easing Anxiety and Setting Expectations
Preparing your child for a Psychoeducational Assessment is key. Discuss the process with them in a positive and understandable manner. Emphasize that the tests are not painful and are meant to help understand their learning style. Ensure they have a good night’s sleep, a nourishing meal, and bring necessary items like glasses or hearing aids. Breaks and snacks will be provided to keep them comfortable.
