Comprehensive Educational Psychology Assessments

We offer thoughtful, in-depth assessments for children and adolescents within the Leicester and Leicestershire regions. The Lead Educational Psychologist is HPCP registered and has over 20 years experience in the field.

Many families seek an assessment because they feel that something is not fully understood. A child may be bright but struggling in school, emotionally overwhelmed, finding friendships difficult, exhausted by the school day, or presenting differently at home and at school. Sometimes concerns relate to attention, anxiety, executive functioning, sensory differences, emotional regulation, or possible neurodivergent profiles.

The assessments are designed to build a detailed understanding of a young person’s strengths, needs, learning profile and experiences. They combine psychological assessment with careful formulation and practical recommendations that can support home life, education and emotional wellbeing.

The process typically includes:

· Parent consultation and developmental history

· Cognitive and learning assessment

· Exploration of attention, executive functioning and emotional wellbeing

· Review of school information and questionnaires

· Integrated formulation of strengths and areas of need

· Detailed written report with practical recommendations

· Feedback session with parents

We work with children and adolescents aged approximately 3–18 years. Assessments are conducted in central Leicester, which is accessible to families in Leicestershire.
