At C S Psychology, I conduct assessments for children and young people up to the age of 25, addressing both broad learning concerns and specific challenges such as literacy, memory, and attention skills. My expertise spans a variety of learning differences, including specific literacy needs, ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, language difficulties, anxiety, physical differences, and hearing impairments.

Each assessment is custom-designed to meet the unique needs of the child. My integrated approach typically includes formal standardised testing, observational techniques to capture the child's perspective, and consultations with parents, carers, and educators. This multi-source feedback is vital for a comprehensive understanding of each child's educational needs.

In my assessments, I foster a relaxed and positive environment, focusing on enhancing the child’s self-esteem. I tailor my methods to accommodate specific needs such as anxiety, ensuring each child feels supported throughout the process.

My assessments pinpoint both the strengths and challenges of each young person, leading to a personalised action plan with specific strategies and recommendations for educational settings, the young person themselves, and occasionally for home support.

Families receive a detailed psychological report from me, which summarises the findings and outlines clear next steps, providing direction and clarity for all parties involved.
