Discovery Psychological Services by Bobbi Jo Gaetz

Services

I offer a range of services designed to support children, teens, parents, and adults in understanding themselves, navigating challenges, and building the skills they need to thrive. My goal is to provide insight, practical strategies, and compassionate guidance that fits each person and each family.

Psychoeducational Assessments

Psychoeducational Assessments

A psychoeducational assessment helps uncover how someone learns, thinks, and approaches school and everyday tasks. These assessments can answer questions about:

  • learning disorders (e.g., reading, writing, math),
  • ADHD and executive functioning,
  • giftedness,
  • general academic struggles or uneven progress,
  • memory, processing, and attention concerns.

Assessments combine cognitive testing, academic measures, behavioural questionnaires, and developmental history to provide a clear understanding of strengths and areas of need. Families receive a detailed report, a feedback session, and tailored recommendations for home and school. The goal is clarity, direction, and a practical plan for next steps.

Gifted Assessments

Giftedness Assessments

Giftedness assessments explore cognitive strengths, learning potential, and advanced reasoning skills. They can be helpful for:

  • school placement decisions,
  • program entry,
  • understanding asynchronous development,
  • identifying twice-exceptional profiles (gifted + learning concerns).

Families receive a clear summary of results, strengths, and recommendations to help guide educational planning and enrichment opportunities.

Therapy for Children and Teens

Therapy for Children and Teens

I provide therapy for children and youth who are experiencing:

  • anxiety and worry,
  • low mood or emotional overwhelm,
  • ADHD-related challenges,
  • behavioural concerns,
  • social difficulties,
  • stress, transitions, and family changes.

Sessions are engaging, developmentally appropriate, and collaborative. I work closely with parents so that strategies can be applied at home in meaningful, consistent ways. Therapy focuses on helping young people understand their emotions, build coping skills, and feel more confident in themselves.

Adult Therapy

Adult Therapy

I also work with adults seeking support with:

  • anxiety and stress,
  • mood difficulties,
  • ADHD and executive functioning challenges,
  • parenting concerns,
  • relationship issues,
  • life transitions.

My approach is warm, down to earth, and practical. Sessions focus on helping you understand what is getting in the way, identify patterns, and build skills that create meaningful change and a greater sense of well-being.

Parent Consultation and Support

Parent Consultation and Support

Parenting can be incredibly rewarding, and also incredibly challenging. I offer parent-focused sessions to help you:

  • understand your child’s behaviour, learning profile, and emotional needs,
  • learn strategies for managing anxiety, ADHD, or behavioural concerns,
  • support routines, homework, and organization,
  • strengthen communication and connection,
  • navigate school challenges or transitions.

These sessions are collaborative and solution-focused, designed to give you tools that work in real life.

How I Work

No matter the service, my goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered. I take a strengths-based, collaborative approach and tailor each session or assessment to the unique needs of the individual or family.

You do not have to navigate challenges alone—support is here when you need it.
