Hello! My name is Whitney Mitchell, and I am a licensed psychologist and owner of Sprout Child Psychology. I am passionate about supporting children, youth, and their families through strengths-based psychological assessment. I provide assessments to help better understand the factors contributing to academic, attentional, social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties. Through this process, I aim to help families gain a clearer understanding of their child’s unique strengths and needs and provide practical recommendations to support their learning, development, and overall well-being.

​

I am originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, where I completed my Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Psychology at the University of Manitoba in 2011. I then went on to complete my Master of Science in School and Applied Child Psychology at the University of Calgary in 2014.

​

I have more than 10 years of experience working with children, youth, and families. Prior to entering private practice, I worked as an assessment psychologist with the Calgary Board of Education, where I completed psychological assessments and consulted with families and school teams to better understand and support children’s learning and development.

​

At Sprout Child Psychology, I provide psychoeducational, mental health, ADHD, and gifted assessments. My approach is strengths-based and individualized, with a focus on helping families understand both their child’s strengths and areas of difficulty and identifying practical supports that can help them succeed at school and in everyday life.

​

I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you in better understanding your child’s strengths and needs.

Whitney
