A social-emotional assessment addresses areas of social, emotional, or behavioural functioning in children and youth. It includes an interview with the primary caregiver(s), a formal and informal evaluation of the child or youth’s emotional well-being and social development, and contact with other informants (such as a social worker, daycare worker, teacher, or extended family member).
The written report includes a diagnosis (if appropriate), but more importantly it pinpoints areas to address in therapy and skills the child could develop, along with recommendations for parents and teachers.
We often conduct social-emotional assessments alongside psychoeducational assessments, which allows us to rule out learning or cognitive causes for behavioural or emotional difficulties
Understanding any underlying cognitive challenges helps us see how they may contribute to what a child is experiencing
