About
Nicole Callaway, M.Ed., R. Psych.
Nicole Callaway is a Registered Psychologist in the Province of Alberta. Nicole attained her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Northern British Columbia, and continued her education at the University of Calgary where she completed her Master of Education in Applied Psychology.
Nicole has developed her practice in the public education sector since 2004, and is highly specialized in the area of psychoeducational assessment. Throughout her years of practice, she has developed expertise in the assessment of Learning Disabilities, Intellectual Disabilities, Giftedness, ADHD, and mood (e.g. anxiety or depression). Nicole's focus has been upon assessment across childhood and adolescence.
Underlying my professional practice is the desire to see all children of all abilities achieve success in life as learners, friends, family members, and members of the community. Some children are able to achieve this through the normal course of their development. Some children excel, and need differentiated expectations to help them keep pace with their potential. Other children are able to best show their gifts with differentiated supports that help them achieve success in their classrooms and among their peers. Sometimes, despite the efforts of parents, family members, students, and teachers, it is hard to know how to help children maximize their potential.
The process of psychoeducational assessment can help by providing exactly that: an understanding. Understanding a child's strengths and needs can be a helpful step in revealing the strategies and supports that will be helpful to children in meeting their goals. A compassionate and collaborative approach is offered, working with you, your child, and your child's educators to ensure a comprehensive understanding of your child's gifts and areas of need.
Expertise is offered in the areas of Learning Disabilities, Intellectual Disabilities, giftedness, ADHD, anxiety, and other social/emotional and/or behavioural concerns.
