What is Educational Psychology
Educational psychology studies how people learn and develop, focusing on cognitive, emotional, and social factors that shape educational outcomes. It bridges psychology and education to help students overcome barriers to learning and achieve their full potential.
I conduct psychoeducational assessments for children, adolescents, and adults, working collaboratively with teachers, doctors, and allied professionals. Assessments identify underlying learning or emotional factors affecting academic performance and wellbeing. They typically include:
- Learning Challenges: Identifying learning disorders, ADHD, developmental delays, or socio-emotional difficulties.
- Emotional Assessments: Exploring how emotional factors such as anxiety or depression affect learning.
- Academic Concessions: Recommending accommodations (e.g., extra time or scribe support) to ensure fair academic assessment.
What to expect
Psychoeducational assessments involve a detailed developmental and clinical interview with parents.
Structured psychometric tests are conducted over a period of 4-6 hours, covering cognitive, emotional, and behavioural domains.
Collateral input from family members, educators, or healthcare providers is often included.
After testing, a detailed feedback consultation reviews findings, diagnoses, and a treatment plan, supported by a comprehensive written report.
Why consider educational psychology
Educational psychology offers insight into how individuals think, learn, and cope with emotional or behavioural challenges in academic contexts.
It provides tailored strategies to improve learning, focus, and emotional wellbeing, while supporting informed decisions for school accommodations and long-term academic success.
