If you suspect that your child suffers from any type of learning difficulty such as dyslexia, it is important to accurately identify the underlying problem and implement effective interventions as early as possible.
With doctoral training in brain development and cognition, our neuropsychologists have a unique understanding of the skills that support your child’s learning. Our educational assessments go beyond typical educational assessments by looking at all aspects of development that can impact on learning (such as attention, memory and executive functioning).
We specialise in the diagnosis of dyslexia and are trained to identify those subtypes that are less common and can be frequently misdiagnosed. This means that we make accurate diagnoses and meaningful recommendations for treatment to boost learning. Our neuropsychologists with work collaboratively with parents, teachers and tutors to ensure positive outcomes.
As well as academic skills, we can also investigate the following skills that support learning:
• General intelligence
• Attention and concentration
• Information processing
• Learning and memory
• Language
