These assessments are useful for diagnosing various conditions, planning treatments, and making informed decisions about educational and occupational settings.
Cognitive Assessment

We offer cognitive assessments to evaluate intellectual functioning, helping to identify strengths and areas for development. These assessments include tests for verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. Beneficiaries include children, adolescents, adults, and older adults.
Neurodevelopmental Assessments
We conduct Neurodevelopmental assessments for conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). These assessments involve a thorough evaluation process, including interviews, standardized testing, and observations to provide accurate diagnoses and tailored recommendations.
