At my Educational Psychology practice, I specialize in the following educational psychology areas:
Orthodidactic assessments |
An orthodidactic assessment is both a formal and informal assessment, done by a qualified person, (usually an educational psychologist), to understand the child's general academic and cognitive level of competence.
|
Career guidance |
A career guidance assessment is a formal assessment, done by a qualified person, (usually an educational psychologist), to assist the child or young adult in finding an appropriate career or field of study.
|
Child focused therapy |
Child focused therapy is the emotional support of children who have difficulty dealing with trauma e.g. death, divorce, change in family setting or structure, hi-jacking, robbery / housebreaking or have a negative self-image (or have a lack in self-confidence). It can also be used with victims of bullying.
|
School readiness assessments |
School readiness assessment is the formal assessment, compared to an informal assessment, of a child's readiness for primary school. This assessment is done on the basis of educational psychology principles.
