We know you have questions
Can I book online?
Assessments can’t be booked online. Call 780-461-1717 or email assessments@insightpsychological.ca, and our team will walk you through the process.
What does the assessment measure?
Cognitive abilities (IQ), academic skills, memory, attention and processing speed.
What happens after we receive the assessment results?
Your psychologist reviews your results in a debrief and can connect you with community resources and/or an Insight therapist for follow-up counselling for your child.
Does my insurance cover assessment at Insight?
Many extended health plans cover a portion of psychoeducational assessments. Check your benefits for “psychological assessments”. We provide detailed receipts for insurance claims and tax purposes. Alberta Health Care does not cover private assessments, so we recommend confirming your specific plan’s coverage, or call us and we’ll help you check before you book.
What is the detailed, step-by-step process?
- Initial consultation: Call to discuss your concerns. We explain the process, provide a cost estimate and discuss timelines and goals, then send a service agreement to review and sign. A 50% deposit secures your booking.
- Clinical interview: Your assessing psychologist meets with you and your child to go over background questions that form the base of the report.
- Testing sessions: Your child completes standardized tests one-on-one, in 1-2 sessions totalling 1.5 to 3 hours. Sessions are designed to be engaging and low-pressure.
- Scoring and report writing: Your psychologist scores the tests and writes a comprehensive report.
- Debrief session: Review findings, diagnoses and recommendations. We can connect you with community resources or an Insight therapist for follow-up counselling.
Will the report help with school accommodations?
The report includes accommodation strategies, which can support requests for things like extra time on tests or the use of technology, and can support special education funding. Each school sets its own documentation requirements, so check what yours needs.
