Our psychologists provide support for teachers and parents in the management of challenging behaviours that can impede a child's learning. Before a behavioural intervention is carried out, the psychologists gather information from teachers and therapists who are involved directly with the child. An observation is then made of the child in the classroom. The psychologists may be involved in the intervention directly, but the eventual goal is to provide inputs to the teachers and parents / caregivers in the management of the child.
Another area of involvement is in the remediation of skills, where a formal or informal assessment is carried out on the child. The information obtained from the assessment, together with other pertinent information gathered about the child from the parent or teacher, is then used to evaluate the child's learning potential.
