Choose an IQ assessment or a broader diagnostic assessment

Monumé Psychology in Mississauga offers WAIS-IV assessments for adults who want to understand their intellectual abilities. Although the service is called “Gifted Testing”, it is available to adults seeking self-understanding as well as families considering school options for children. Booking begins with a free phone consultation arranged through the website.

One Psychology Clinic in Toronto offers a stand-alone package that includes WAIS administration, scoring, and a one-page results report. For those who also want an ADHD evaluation, its “ADHD Assessment + Cognitive Testing” combines interviews and questionnaires with the WAIS. Both services can be requested through the New Client Form.

The service that suits you also depends on whether you want a detailed explanation of your results or a brief score report. Monumé Psychology includes a feedback session and a psychological report, while One Psychology Clinic’s stand-alone package focuses on a concise results report.

In-person testing takes about two hours, with feedback and a report afterwards

At Monumé Psychology, the process consists of an initial interview, about two hours of in-person testing, a feedback session, and a psychological report. The feedback covers areas such as verbal and visual reasoning, the ability to hold and work with information, and processing speed.

WAIS-IV at One Psychology Clinic is also an in-person test lasting about two hours. The combined ADHD assessment adds interviews and questionnaires, followed by a detailed report and feedback covering diagnosis and recommendations for support.

The cost of a WAIS assessment in Canada and the time needed to receive the results are covered in separate guides.
