ADHD typically emerges in early childhood and may persist into adulthood. Some common signs and symptoms include:
Taking a Child’s ADHD Assessment is critical in understanding and addressing your child’s unique challenges. At the Calgary Institute of Counselling, we provide a thorough evaluation that helps parents gain clarity about their child’s behaviour and learning needs.
By identifying ADHD early, families can access the tools and resources necessary to support their child’s growth, confidence, and success at home and school.
Detecting ADHD early allows for timely interventions that can improve academic performance, social skills, and emotional well-being.
A comprehensive assessment ensures personalized strategies and resources to meet your child’s needs and strengths.
Parents and caregivers gain valuable insights and guidance to foster a supportive and understanding environment for their children.
An accurate ADHD diagnosis can help identify learning challenges, leading to targeted interventions and accommodations that enhance your child’s educational success.
Understanding your child’s behaviour fosters empathy and equips families with effective communication tools, reducing stress and improving family dynamics.
With the right support and strategies in place, children with ADHD can develop self-confidence and resilience, empowering them to thrive in social and academic settings.
Our Child ADHD Assessment process is designed to provide clarity and actionable insights for parents and caregivers. It begins with an initial consultation to understand your child’s developmental history, behavior, and specific concerns.
During the assessment, we use a combination of standardized tests, parent and teacher input, and behavioral observations to evaluate symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
Once the assessment is complete, our experts provide a detailed report and meet with families to discuss results. Together, we develop a customized treatment plan that aligns with your child’s needs, empowering them to thrive at home, in school, and socially. Follow-up support and guidance are also available to ensure the plan remains effective.
Contact us to book your free 20-minute consultation and determine if a Basic or Comprehensive ADHD Assessment is appropriate for your child’s needs.
During the assessment, we evaluate your child’s behavior, history, and performance through standardized tests, parent and teacher feedback, and direct observations.
After completing the evaluation, families receive a detailed report and a personalized consultation to understand the findings and explore tailored strategies.
Our assessment includes a developmental history review, standardized testing, parent and teacher feedback, and a comprehensive evaluation of symptoms like inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
Basic assessments take 6–7 hours, while comprehensive assessments range from 12–15 hours, typically spread across multiple sessions to ensure thorough evaluation.
Many insurance plans cover ADHD assessments. We recommend checking with your provider or contacting us for assistance with coverage details.
If your child exhibits persistent difficulty with attention, impulsivity, or hyperactivity impacting their daily life, an ADHD assessment can provide clarity and direction.
Following the assessment, we provide a detailed report and collaborate with families to develop a personalized treatment plan. Ongoing support is available as needed.
