Clinical psychologist in Paris 15th arrondissement
Understand precisely how you function rather than multiplying hypotheses. Luc MARTRENCHAR, clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst, has been conducting psychological assessments for children, adolescents and adults for 17 years.
Psychometric assessment · Emotional and personality assessment · Comprehensive psychological assessment
Three formats make it possible to tailor the assessment to your question. If several hypotheses overlap, or if you want a comprehensive understanding of how you function, the comprehensive assessment is the most appropriate option.
To explore cognitive functioning, measure IQ and investigate a possible High Intellectual Potential (HIP).
To explore emotional functioning and personality in greater depth, identify a High Emotional Potential (HEP) and/or explore the possibility of ADHD. The assessment can focus primarily on either of these two questions.
For an integrated understanding of cognitive, emotional, attentional and relational functioning, as well as personality.
Are you mainly seeking an assessment for possible ADHD? The emotional and personality assessment can focus on this question. You do not need to choose the comprehensive assessment if you do not also want to explore cognitive functioning or other hypotheses.
Do several hypotheses overlap? When HIP, HEP, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder or high sensitivity may overlap, the comprehensive assessment provides a broader and more differential understanding.
The same difficulty can have different explanations. The goal is not to accumulate labels, but to understand what genuinely characterizes your profile and what can help you in practical terms.
Inattention, feeling different from others, high sensitivity, social fatigue or atypical functioning can occur in several profiles. Looking across dimensions provides context.
The assessment is not limited to a score. It highlights strengths, differences between abilities and the distinctive features of your individual functioning.
The feedback session turns the results into practical guidance for personal, school, university or professional life and, when necessary, clarifies appropriate support options.
What is my cognitive profile? Do my results suggest High Intellectual Potential ?
How does my emotional intelligence function? Does my profile suggest High Emotional Potential ?
Do my difficulties with attention, organization or impulsivity warrant exploring the possibility of ADHD ?
Do my relational, sensory or behavioral characteristics suggest an Autism Spectrum Disorder ?
What are my dominant traits, strengths and vulnerabilities, and what may explain some recurring difficulties?
How can I better understand my child’s cognitive profile, possible giftedness and the difficulties that may affect school or well-being?
You choose a focused or comprehensive assessment depending on your question. If you are unsure, the reason for your request can be clarified before testing begins.
Tests and interviews are adapted to age and to the hypotheses being explored. Psychometric assessments are carried out at the office in Paris.
The results are explained, put into context and accompanied by recommendations. You receive the written report included with the assessment.
The methodology is adapted for children from age 2½, adolescents and adults. The psychometric tests used vary according to age: WPPSI-IV, WISC-V or WAIS-IV.
The office is located at 8 rue Beaugrenelle, Paris 15th arrondissement. The emotional and personality assessment can be carried out remotely; the arrangements depend on the type of assessment selected.

A video introduction to help you understand the overall assessment process before choosing the format that best fits your situation.
Screening tests are a useful first step before a full assessment : they help you examine a hypothesis, organize your thinking and determine whether a more in-depth evaluation is appropriate. They do not replace a full assessment, but they can help you decide which direction to take.
You are wondering about your intellectual level, your sense of being different or the possibility of High Intellectual Potential.
Take the HIP screening test →To explore the possibility of High Emotional Potential and distinctive aspects of your emotional functioning.
Take the HEP screening test →To find out whether your difficulties with attention, organization, impulsivity or restlessness warrant exploring ADHD.
Take the ADHD screening test →To explore characteristics historically associated with Asperger’s syndrome and, more broadly, certain Autism Spectrum Disorder profiles.
Take the ASD / Asperger’s screening test →For parents wondering whether their child’s characteristics warrant a psychometric assessment.
Take the gifted-child screening test →Not sure which screening test to choose? Start with the hypothesis that best matches your current question. When a profile appears more complex, a full assessment can then examine several dimensions together.
The site contains many articles on High Potential, intelligence, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder and psychological testing. The main resources are grouped below.
