“As parents, we found ourselves in a position of trying to ascertain if our teenage son had dyslexia. He was increasingly convinced there was something at the root of his reading, writing and problem solving abilities, but not severe enough to impact his grades as yet. We found Essential Psychology to be an immediate source of knowledge and experience, guiding us and our son through the process to determine if he was dyslexic or not. Jo Bartholomew put our son at ease straight away and the whole assessment was completed in a professional, friendly manner in our own home, with no stress or complicated processes. The results were very comprehensive and did explain away a number of his key difficulties with timed exams. From a position of knowing very little about the subject, Essential Psychology has now given our son the findings to ensure he has the additional support as he completes his A-level studies and his future plans for university. We would thoroughly recommend them to any parents who find themselves in a similar position.”
