I can’t say enough good things about Dr.Murphy and Associates. From beginning to end, Vanessa, Jissel, Dr. Murphy and everyone in the office was so attentive to our child’s needs.

Dr Murphy and the ENTIRE team are exceptional people and professionals. I almost never put together reviews, but in this case I was compelled to. Thank you all for a wonderful experience!

DEFINITION

What Is a Psychological Check-In?

A Psychological Check-In is an annual session designed to refresh and refine your psychological and educational support plan. Whether you're a student with an IEP, a young adult navigating post-secondary accommodations, or a parent monitoring your child’s developmental progress, this service helps ensure you're equipped for success.

These sessions provide an opportunity to evaluate academic or developmental progress, review prior assessments and recommendations, update school or workplace-related documentation, revisit learning goals, emotional challenges, or behavioural concerns, and plan ahead for transitions or future assessments

Psychological Check-Ins Are Ideal For:

  • Students with IEPs or academic accommodations

  • Individuals who’ve previously undergone assessments and need updates

  • Families preparing for key educational transitions (e.g., elementary to high school, high school to university)

  • Post-secondary students requiring documentation for academic accommodations

  • Individuals seeking support in aligning educational and emotional development

  • Anyone looking to reflect on their progress and prepare for what’s next
