The comprehensive Neurocognitive Assessment helps to understand how children and adolescents learn, think, and process information. At Nos Curare, we also specialise in neurocognitive assessments for children and teens presenting with non-verbal communication or social-communication differences, to better understand how these impact their learning, emotional development, and daily interactions.
These assessments explore strengths and challenges in areas such as:
- Attention and concentration
- Working memory and processing speed
- Problem-solving and reasoning
- Language and communication (including non-verbal communication)
- Academic skills (reading, writing, maths)
- Emotional regulation and social functioning
Child or Teenager with Difficulties at School or at Home?
Our assessments are particularly valuable when children or teenagers are experiencing difficulties at school or at home that may relate to:
- ADHD / Attention difficulties
- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Learning differences (e.g., dyslexia, dyscalculia)
- Non-verbal communication or social-communication challenges
- Anxiety, low mood, or emotional difficulties
- Executive function difficulties (organisation, planning, flexibility)
We use well-validated tools such as WISC-V, QbCheck, and memory and executive functioning tests, alongside clinical interviews and behavioural observations. This holistic approach helps us create a clear profile of your child’s cognitive and emotional functioning — highlighting both areas of strength and where support may be needed.
Following the assessment, families receive a detailed report and feedback session with clear recommendations. These may include tailored strategies for school, psychological support, or therapeutic interventions to help children and teens reach their full potential.
