Cognitive and educational assessments in Camberwell and Mckinnon

Understanding how a person thinks, learns and processes information can be a crucial step in supporting their development, whether at school, university or in the workplace. At Reflection Psychology, we offer cognitive assessments and educational assessments for both children and adults across our Melbourne clinics, including Camberwell and McKinnon.

Our registered psychologists use evidence-based tools to assess intellectual and academic functioning, helping to identify learning difficulties or developmental concerns early and accurately.

Supporting children’s learning and development

A child cognitive assessment can provide essential insights into a child’s strengths and challenges across learning, attention and memory. We work with children who may be falling behind academically, struggling to keep up in the classroom, or showing signs of disengagement or frustration. Our team conducts thorough cognitive educational assessments to explore:

  • General intellectual ability
  • Memory and processing speed
  • Problem-solving and reasoning
  • Academic skill development

These assessments are often used to support applications for classroom accommodations, learning support, or funding. Our psychologists work closely with parents and schools to ensure the child receives the appropriate recommendations and support.

We also provide educational assessments for learning difficulties, such as dyslexia, and assessments for identifying intellectual disability or giftedness. If needed, a psychoeducational assessment may be recommended to provide a comprehensive profile combining cognitive and educational outcomes.

Adult cognitive assessments

We also support adults who may be experiencing ongoing challenges with learning, memory or concentration. Whether you’re returning to study, facing work-related difficulties, or seeking clarity on long-standing learning concerns, our adult cognitive assessments can help uncover key information to guide personal and professional decisions.

Our experienced psychologists provide practical, strengths-based recommendations following each assessment.

Specialised support from educational psychologists

Our team includes highly qualified educational assessment psychologists and developmental educational psychologists. Each assessment is tailored to the individual’s needs, ensuring results are relevant, actionable and professionally interpreted.
