General Public Information – Psychometric Testing Service

Sheridan’s Psychology offers standardized psychometric testing as a separate service for individuals. This service may be requested as part of a treatment plan from a health professional or may be required as part of a recruitment process in better understanding the aptitude and fit of an individual/s to an organisation or can be a person wanting to learn more about themselves. If you or a loved one has concerns around memory loss, difficulties in concentration, behavioural or interpersonal problems, then perhaps psychometric testing can help. Testing and assessment can be useful in detecting patterns of thoughts, beliefs, and behaviours as well as cognitive aptitude which can aid diagnosis and treatment. At Sheridan’s Psychology, we offer a comprehensive testing service that includes neuropsychological, intelligence and personality testing. All assessments include detailed reports delivered at a feedback session to help in better understanding the results. Here are some examples:
