Psychologists
Psychology is the science of why people do what they do. More specifically, Psychologists study two important relationships: one between brain function and behaviour, and one between the environment and behaviour.
Psychologists should have at least a Bachelor's degree (Honours) in Psychology from an accredited university.
Psychologists use specifically developed tools for assessment and diagnosis of intellectual and functional abilities, social/emotional development, and mental health.
At MINDS, we:
- Conduct Psychological assessment of social / emotional / behavioural / learning difficulties.
