Anna Ranger, M.A.
I work as a psychometrist at CFIR, under the supervision of experienced psychologists specializing in the assessment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In my capacity as a psychometrist, I gather, score, and interpret psychological tests. These offer insightful data that helps the psychologist complete their assessment and arrive at a diagnosis.
During your time with me, you will participate in cognitive testing that uses tools based on scientific research. I may also conduct an interview to gather background information and identify any challenges you might be facing in your daily life. I strive to make the assessment process as engaging and comfortable for you as possible.
I began my academic journey at the University of Ottawa, earning an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Criminology in 2020. I then completed a Graduate Certificate in Victimology at Algonquin College in 2021, followed by a Master of Arts in Psychology at Carleton University in 2024. My Master’s thesis, “Effects of Vicarious Crime Exposure on Wellbeing in Victims and Their Romantic Partners,” highlighted my commitment to understanding the direct and vicarious psychological impacts of traumatic experiences, including those of a criminal nature. Looking ahead, I plan to pursue further education and training in counselling psychology, with the goal of becoming a practicing psychotherapist.
