Adaptive, Social, Emotional and Behavioural Assessment €650:

If you are not worried about how your child is learning, then they may not need an IQ and learning assessment. In this case, you can have your child’s overall mood, anxiety, social, day to day and behavioural skills assessed on their own. This would involve:

• Examples of the types of things you are seeing that are worrying you.
• A children’s interview, whereby the child would meet with the psychologist to spend some time together for a chat and observations. With younger children, this is play or art based, with older children, discussion is sometimes more appropriate.
• Formal tests using questionnaires. These would assess and screen for mood, anxiety, and behavioural problems as well as ASD and ADHD.
• School or Preschool consultation. This may involve a telephone call or a school visit.
• Following this a detailed psychology report, strengths and needs profile and intervention plan is created for your child.
