Psychological insight for children and adolescents
Child and Adolescent Assessments in Dubai
When a child or teenager is struggling at school, at home or with friendships, it can be difficult to know what is going on beneath the surface. A psychological assessment can provide valuable insight into their strengths, challenges and the support they may need to thrive.
At Vivamus, our psychologists in Dubai offer a range of assessments for children and adolescents to help families better understand and support their child’s development.

Psychological assessments for children and adolescents can provide answers around:
- Academic concerns or learning difficulties
- Possible ADHD or attention challenges
- Social communication or autistic spectrum traits
- Behavioural difficulties or emotional regulation
- Giftedness or developmental delays
- School-related anxiety or lack of motivation
Whether the concerns are raised by parents, teachers or the child themselves, our team can help identify what is going on and how to move forward with confidence.
