Cognitive Skills Assessment

Service Description

At Mind Links we conduct a full assessment designed to identify strengths and weaknesses with regards to an individual's learning skills. The assessment encompasses a battery of tests which measure short and long-term memory, processing speed, logic and reasoning, visual processing, auditory processing, reading skills, attention and IQ. A cognitive skills test identifies areas of deficit: once identified, weak skills can be strengthened through brain training. Strengthening these skills typically addresses the root cause of the problem and removes frustrating obstacles to learning. Identifying weak skills can: • give professionals and families the answers they need to make informed decisions regarding the best intervention required • save time and money that might have been spent pursuing interventions that don’t address the root cause of the problem Once the assessment is complete, we schedule a consultation meeting within a week to discuss the results and give recommendations. The report you will receive during your consultation will give a detailed profile of individual cognitive strengths and weaknesses in each of the above areas.
