Before my assessment, I had no idea that my struggles with reading and organisation were due to dyslexia. The assessment not only provided me with a diagnosis but also gave me the confidence to seek the necessary accommodations at work. I highly recommend their services to anyone who suspects they may have dyslexia

Dyslexia Assesments
For adults & children
Over the years, there has been much debate on the importance of the early identification of dyslexia. It is felt that this helps to ensure that an individuals self esteem is not negatively affected. It also enables support and interventions to take place whilst a child is still at school.
Many parents have reported that although they initially didn't want a 'label' for their child, they have seen that when the child comes to understand why they think differently they develop a growth mindset.
Although early identification has been shown as beneficial, this is not always possible for everyone. We complete many assessments of adults who are successful in their career but feel there is something holding them back from progressing further.
There has been much recent press surrounding neurodiversity and the benefits of dyslexic thinking in the workplace. It is widely understood that individuals with dyslexia have a creative mindset and are great problem solvers. Individuals also learn how to overcome their difficulties and develop resilience at an earlier age.
If something doesn't feel right, it's worth exploring.
