It is often necessary to meet with caregivers and their child/youth for an initial appointment to gain a better understanding of their concerns and needs. Based on this consultation meeting, we can then decide, together, if our services are well suited for your expectations and needs. If we cannot provide the kind of support that you need, we will suggest alternatives and options within your community.

Cost: $225/hr

 

 

 

Before I got married I had six theories about bringing up children; now I have six children, and no theories.

If you have concerns about your child’s learning and academic progress, we can complete a comprehensive learning assessment (often termed ‘psychoeducational assessment’) in order to better understand your child’s unique learning profile. This assessment will involve at least two visits to complete a variety of measures that evaluate intelligence, memory, processing skills, attention, memory and academic skills. The information from this assessment will then be summarized in terms of educational recommendations.

 

Cost: $2400.00 (including 2 copies of formal report).

Based on our experience within school boards, we are very familiar with educational options and plans. While it is not our role to consult directly on school board processes such as Identification, Placement and Review Committee (IPRC) or Individual Educational Plan (IEP), we can offer advice and direction to parents on how best to work with these supports.  Typically, we will have conducted a psychoeducational assessment first in order to be more familiar with your specific child’s needs.

Cost: $225/hour plus any travel time if attendance at school meetings is required.

 

If you want children to keep their feet on the ground, put some responsibility on their shoulders.
