Andre Labao

Dr. Labao has extensive experience in psychoeducational and neuropsychological assessments, including training at academic medical centres, private practices, school boards, and college counselling centres. He brings a strengths-based approach to his work with clients and values evidence-based practice. His background in brain-based behaviour, knowledge and application of various neuropsychological/ cognitive theories, and dedication to client-centered assessment ensures comprehensive testing of clients’ needs. His theoretical approach to his work includes using Integrated School-Neuropsychological/CHC, Lurian, Boston-Process, PASS, and Cross Battery methods/approaches. He values the quantitative EEG process in supporting treatment approaches for his clients. Therapeutically, he uses Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) and Solution-Focused (SFT) modalities.

Dr.Labao is a registered clinical and school psychologist with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. He is also Board-Certified with the American Board of School Neuropsychology (ABSNP), a Member of the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA), and a Member of the American Academy of Pediatric Neuropsychology (AAPdN).

I believe the best approach to client care involves a thorough and sound understanding of both psychological and neuropsychological factors that contribute to individual health. For this reason, I value the assessment process and utilize theoretical assessment knowledge to provide the best care and evidence-based services for my clients.

In his spare time, Dr. Labao enjoys reading, socializing with colleagues, and dancing; he has trained in ballroom dance and enjoys Latin dancing the most.
