Leeds School Psychologist
motional difficulties and mental health issues among school going children have been increasing in the past few decades. The COVID-19 pandemic and the drastic changes implemented to fight the pandemic worsened the psychological impact of the pandemic on children. The good news is that Inner Circle Psychology offers a trained school psychologist in Leeds to help children learn healthy coping skills and overcome the difficulties they’re experiencing.
Several surveys conducted by medical scientists show that one in six school-going children in the United Kingdom report experiencing mental health difficulty in any given week. It’s crucial to mention that anxiety or any other mental health difficulty isn’t isolated to one or two students. It is a growing concern in the school community, and teachers and parents must work together to ensure the issue is addressed.
Leeds’ Best School Psychologist
At Inner Circle Psychology, our trained and certified school psychologists use proven therapeutic techniques to assess students and understand their emotional and psychological needs. These are professionals with diverse skills that include mental health expertise in school-going children and effective communication as well as specialised knowledge in psycho-educational assessments and behavioural health management.
Indeed, our school psychologists have unmatched problem-solving skills. When combined with their academic knowledge in child development and educational psychology, our psychologists are better positioned to help you ensure the needs of your school’s children are met fully. Therefore, when you choose our services, you can be sure that you are working with the best school psychologists in Leeds.
The first step to providing professional support to your students or pupils is to first identify and understand their needs. That’s why we begin with a thorough assessment. We work with the students in your school to identify and understand the varied needs they have. For instance, some children may feel overwhelmed by the pressure to excel in academics while others may have experienced bullying.
During these initial assessments, we narrow down to each child to understand their strengths, weaknesses and any emotional or psychological difficulties they may be facing. It’s important to mention that our assessments are structured evaluations that can help pinpoint learning strengths and weaknesses. This information can help teachers help students to use their abilities to learn effectively in the classroom.
Our thorough assessments can also help identify learning disabilities and delays among school going children. This information can help your school, especially your teachers to provide the right accommodations to ensure even students with learning disabilities have a strong sense of belonging and can learn effectively.
A thorough assessment can also help identify emotional difficulties and behavioural changes that could be preventing a child from learning effectively. Such information allows us to work with the children affected and their teachers (or parents) to help the children overcome these difficulties and thrive in their academic work.
When you choose to work with our school psychologist in Leeds you can be sure we’ll perform thorough assessment of your school system. This will help us determine how best your school meets the psychological and academic needs of your students. We will also recommend improvements.
