Neuropsychological Disorders including acquired brain injuries resulting from motor vehicle accidents, cerebral infections (including meningitis and encephalitis), medical conditions (including epilepsy, cerebral palsy and hypoxic ischemic injury), genetic and metabolic conditions
- Difficulties with aspects of cognitive functioning affecting learning (including specific challenges with attention, language, visual processing, memory, processing speed and executive functioning skills)

Following our assessments, we provide a detailed overview of your child's strengths and weaknesses in addition to a comprehensive range of home and classroom management strategies appropriate to their individual learning needs. We can also attend school case-conferences to support intervention development and service delivery planning. Our assessment outcomes assist educators and other health professionals involved in your child's management in a number of ways. Primarily, we focus on understanding and explaining WHY a student is experiencing learning difficulties at school. For example, a student can experience literacy difficulties secondary to underlying language, attention or specific literacy challenges. Our assessment clarify any underling cognitive or processing vulnerabilities contributing to your child's learning challenges and specify how to target interventions to achieve the best outcomes for your child.
