Assessment

Assessments at Bloom Assessment & Therapy are tailored to the individual and guided by specific referral questions, rather than following a fixed testing package. Assessment selection, interpretation, and reporting are based on clinical judgment and the individual’s developmental history, current functioning, and presenting needs across education, work, and daily life settings. Reports are written to provide meaningful, practical understanding and clear recommendations, rather than generic descriptions of test results. A flat fee structure is used so clients have clarity about costs from the outset.

Who do we help?

 

bloom icon

Teachers and parents who are frustrated at a lack of educational progress for their child. Their child is not responding to interventions (reading, writing, maths).

bloom icon

Children who continue to have behavioural issues which inhibit their ability to connect with education (e.g. anxiety, attention, language difficulties, understanding problems, social difficulties).

bloom icon
Children who have transitioned to high school, and the cognitive, attentional, and executive functioning loads have skyrocketed!! The strategies they have always used to cope are no longer working!
bloom icon
People for who the world is hard to navigate. Attention is hard, emotional regulation is hard, staying still is hard, staying on task is hard. You’ve always felt a little bit different from the crowd.

What do we do?

 

bloom icon
We conduct assessments for people aged from 6 years. Our assessments investigate the way people think, what they have learnt, how they learn, attention, behaviour, mood, personality, and neurodiversity.
bloom icon
We provide relevant and do-able recommendations and information in our feedback and reports. We don’t drown you in jargon and technical language reports which you can’t understand and therefore can’t use.

We identify and transform barriers to accessing education, curriculum, life and work opportunities.
