Cognitive Assessments

At Old Town Psychology, we offer cognitive and psychological assessments for all ages ranging from child to adult. These assessments can be used for diagnosis, treatment planning, educational placement, or just to have a better understanding of yourself or your child. We conduct assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. Our assessments are rigorous, objective, and comprehensive.

We currently provide the following assessments at Old Town Psychology:

 
 

ADHD

We conduct assessments that diagnose or rule-out Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The assessments integrate information from interviews, rating scales, and cognitive testing. This information can be used to obtain support or accommodations.

 
 
 

Comprehensive Exam

Our comprehensive exams offer a full view into what makes you unique. We assess your intelligence, memory, self-control, achievement, personality, emotional health, social skills, and creativity. With this information, you’ll learn about your strengths and weaknesses, and what sets you apart.

 
 
 

IQ & ACHIEVEMENT

We administer the WAIS-IV, WISC-V, WPPSI-IV, and the WJ-IV ACH. These are the most trusted and commonly used IQ and achievement tests available. They are are widely accepted by schools, gifted programs, and organizations like Mensa.

 
 
 

Learning Disorders

We test for learning disorders such as difficulties with reading (dyslexia), math (dyscalculia), and writing (dysgraphia). Our assessments differentiate learning disorders from other diagnoses like ADHD and intellectual development disorder. This information can be used to received accommodations at school and work.

 
 
 

Memory Assessments

Our memory assessments help you understand how well your memory is functioning and identify any areas of concern. We measure all the different components of memory, including working memory, short-term memory, long-term memory as well as the ability to learn new information. The results can also tell you which strategies would be most useful for improving your memory.
