About Waterman Psychology
Comprehensive Educational Assessments for Children and Families
We have been passionate about helping children and adults with learning and behavioural issues for many years. We know how much impact can be made if a learning disorder is detected early enough — and how an intervention can drastically affect a child’s academic and general wellbeing.
It’s important that the child knows that a learning disorder does not mean they are “dumb” or “stupid” or “lazy.” It just means that they need to learn in a different way.
