MEGAN SANDOMIERSKI, PH.D.

Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology

(She/Her)

Megan Sandomierski earned her Ph. D. in Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology from the University of Guelph in 2017. She provides psychological assessment services for children and adolescents, including those to help with the transition to post-secondary studies.  Assessments can offer helpful ways for understanding and supporting academic, social, and emotional development as well as struggles that might otherwise be difficult to make sense of. Megan provides assessments in the following areas: psychoeducational assessment, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), gifted assessment, social-emotional assessment, and assessment for College/University purposes. 

Megan views assessment as an opportunity to provide a therapeutic experience for children, adolescents, and their families. Through assessments, children and adolescents can explore different aspects of themselves, their experiences, and abilities. By gathering and integrating various sources of information, assessments can help families to arrive at a new, deeper, and more empathic understanding of their child or teenager. This also allows for supports to be individually tailored to the unique strengths and needs of each child or adolescent.

Assessments may involve testing to explore or diagnose learning disorders, ADHD, giftedness, intellectual disabilities, developmental concerns, relationship difficulties, and mental health disorders. Megan aims to foster a warm, open, and curious environment. She applies a developmental and relational approach to her clinical work, adapting assessment sessions flexibly according to each child’s temperament, learning style, and previous history. Megan strives to communicate assessment results, interpretations, and recommendations to youth and their families in an understandable and developmentally sensitive way. 

Megan has received training in school board, community mental health, and private clinic settings. Megan completed her doctoral level clinical internship in Toronto at the Hincks-Dellcrest Centre (now the SickKids Centre for Community Mental Health). She has worked with children and families with diverse presenting difficulties, backgrounds, and experiences. Megan’s clinical training has involved conducting complex psychological assessments, providing individual psychotherapy for children and adolescents, as well as play-based therapy for families with preschool-aged children.
