When it comes to athletes and students

Coaching matters

Teaching strategies matter

Knowing what makes your students feel engaged matters

Knowing what makes them shut down matters

Being able to share with people how your brain works, what your strengths are and your learning preferences are

Help them help you achieve your dreams and goals

If you aren’t sure

An assessment can give you concrete answers

If you have questions about assessments please reach out to us

We are happy to help!

A psycho educational assessment helps identify strengths!

Every brain works differently

Every brain has super powers

When we don’t know how our super power works

It can be problematic

When we don’t know how to make the most of ADHD and it’s strengths

It can lead to misunderstandings and confusion

Spiderman had to learn to control his super power

He can’t shoot spiderwebs anywhere all the time

But once mastered it became a great tool

The same is true with ADHD, learning disability/differences, and ASD

If you want support identifying your child’s (or your own) strengths and super powers

We would love to work with you and support you on your journey!

The best timing of psycho-educational assessments may depend on a few things

At this time of the year

It is beneficial to consider that it is still possible to get teacher input

Teachers have now been with your child for nearly 10 months and have a lot of great feedback on how to go forward to make next year the best one yet

Also at this time benefits renew for many plans. Often on June 1st or July 1st

Booking now allows you to maximize the benefits for both benefit years

Ultimately

The best timing is the one that provides the best support for your child within the best time frame

Also note

You can book now to allow for teacher input

But book your assessment appointments in the summer to avoid missing school.

If you have questions we are always happy to help!

At this time of the year

Booking an assessment means that you can get teacher input

Teachers have just spent 10 months getting to know your child

Their observations are very meaningful to the diagnostic decision making

If you are unsure if your child needs an assessment

Ask their teacher this simple question

If no support is provided for my child

Will they

Thrive and improve

Or

Fall behind

If you have any questions we are happy to help!

I’ve said it before and I will keep saying it

Young athletes have individual needs and should be encouraged to develop their own pre-game rituals

What works for one athlete

May create anxiety for another

Anxiety impacts ultimate performance

In some cases it can trigger survival mode and fight, flight, freeze

Which is not how you want to send your athletes into their games or performances

Knowing how an athlete experiences stress and what helps them thrive

Helps them (and the team) win 🏆

What is one thing you can get rid of today to help get out of overwhelm?

Remember NO is a complete sentence.

If no feels too harsh and makes you uncomfortable

Try:

My schedule is currently full

Or

I am not currently accepting those types of opportunities

04/01/2026

Yes! Psycho-educational assessments help athletes!

Knowing how your brain processes information helps athletes and coaches identify strategies for training

When you aren’t struggling to learn plays, choreography or technique

You can focus on optimal performance.

03/31/2026

Return to sport and return to game

When it comes to athlete injuries

Planning a way forward is important

As it can help to get in front of concerns like anxiety and depression

Working as a team with coaches, physios, doctors and psychologists

Helps everyone be on the same page and support the athlete

Return to sport is not necessarily the same physical readiness as return to game.

The difference can be very emotional for the athlete.

Supporting them is key
