We use a variety of focused programs and series to improve different learning skills. Some of
the programs that we use in various areas are as follows:
About five to seven hours of testing time spread over 3-4 separate appt.
Intake interview with parents
Feedback interview with parents and child / student, depending on child / students age and parental reference
A written report is finalized during feedback interview, enabling parents and, if appropriate, student to take an active role in
formulating plans for interventions and/or accommodations
Written report is usually completed in 2 weeks of the last day of assessment
We also screen students for Learning Disabilities and Attention deficit hyperactivity
Disorders.
Our reports are internationally accepted by all school boards.
We routinely fill Form C (United Kingdom) for which ceilings of the test is needed. So we save the students protocols in order to be able
to fill Form C.
Confidentiality of Report:
Reports are given to parents and adult students, who determine their distribution, e.g. to physician, school.
We use a series of standardized tests to ensure a reliable and valid assessment. Following are

The primary goal of the Gibson Test is to quickly, easily and affordably identify whether any
key cognitive skills are weak which may explain why learning is hard for a student. Knowing
how well a student processes information, their Learning Skill Profile, is the first step to
helping a student succeed academically.
Not an IQ Test
The Gibson Test is not an IQ test. It contains many sub-tests commonly used to generate an
IQ score, but it contains additional sub-tests that assess key cognitive skills that impact
learning. It is possible to have an average or better IQ score yet struggle with some aspect of
learning. IQ scores represent an average of several skills. That average can mask weak skills
because the average can be offset by some high skills. Imagine a car with a great engine and
aerodynamic design but a flat tire. One flat tire can keep even the best car from performing
well.
This assessment is not intended to diagnose any learning disability. However, it will provide
you with a measure of eleven core cognitive skills and provide you with an indication of
relative strengths and weaknesses. It should identify problem areas that may require more
extensive testing to achieve a proper diagnosis if required.
Schools know which students are behind academically. However, they typically do not know
why. The Gibson Test can provide critical information for understanding the underlying
causes of academic challenges and provide a clearer path to a solution
Counseling
Counseling is a type of talking therapy that allows a person to talk about their problems
and feelings in a confidential and dependable environment.
A counselor is trained to listen with empathy. They can help one deal with any negative
thoughts and feelings one has. Psychological therapies include psychotherapy, narrative
therapy, and relationship therapy, which could be between members of a family, a couple, or
work colleagues.
Counseling aims to help you deal with and overcome issues that are causing emotional pain
or making you feel uncomfortable.
It can provide a safe and regular space for you to talk and explore difficult feelings. The
counselor is there to support you and respect your views. They won't usually give advice, but
will help you find your own insights into and understanding of your problems.
Counseling can help you:
Counseling can often involve talking about difficult or painful feelings and, as you begin to
face them, you may feel worse in some ways. However, with the help and support of your
therapist, you should gradually start to feel better.
In most cases, it takes a number of sessions before the counseling starts to make a difference,
and a regular commitment is required to make the best use of the therapy.
During your counseling sessions, you'll be encouraged to express your feelings and emotions.
By discussing your concerns with you, the counselor can help you gain a better understanding
of your feelings and thought processes, as well as identifying ways of finding your own
solutions to problems.
It can be a great relief to share your worries and fears with someone who acknowledges your
feelings and is able to help you reach a positive solution.

Ideally, counseling is terminated when the problem that you pursued counseling for becomes
more manageable or is resolved.
CAREER COUNSELLING
Career counselling and assessment helps students to get an overall guidance for their careers
and interests as well as help them in identifying their strengths and weaknesses further. .
CDM-R lets students self-assess their interests, abilities and work values, to offer career
interest areas students can use to guide their career decision. Choosing careers or further
education linked to students interests, abilities and values leads to more satisfaction
throughout their career.
