Understanding ADHD: Start with a Comprehensive Assessment
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common condition that can affect a child’s behaviour, attention span, and impulse control. At Steps and Stones Psychology, we offer comprehensive assessments to help identify ADHD in children, providing valuable insights for families and educators.
Our ADHD Assessment Process
Our ADHD assessment involves a thorough evaluation, including:
- Behavioural Observations: Observing the child to understand their behaviour.
- Parent and Teacher Questionnaires: Collecting input from those who interact with the child regularly.
- Standardised Testing: Using proven tools to measure attention, impulsivity, and other relevant factors.
How Our Assessments Can Help
The information gathered from our assessments can help parents and educators understand a child’s unique needs. This understanding can lead to effective strategies for managing symptoms and supporting the child’s learning and development.
What Happens After the Assessment?
Once the assessment is complete, we provide a detailed report with our findings. This report includes:
- Identified Patterns: Information on attention, behaviour, and impulse control.
- Recommendations: Suggestions for further support or adjustments to accommodate the child’s needs.
- Next Steps: Guidance on what parents can do to help their child thrive.
