SERVICES WE OFFER
PSYCHOLOGICAL AND NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENTS
All of our evaluations are tailored to answer your specific questions. Common reasons parents seek a psychological evaluation include:
-
Wondering if your child meets criteria for an official diagnosis (e.g., ADHD, a learning disability, or an anxiety disorder)
-
Obtaining a second opinion separate from individuals working at a student’s school
-
Assessing cognitive and academic strengths and weaknesses to inform school placement and academic planning decisions
-
Determining which preventive actions will be most beneficial for your child, psychologically and emotionally
-
Assessing how a medical disorder (e.g. seizure disorder, chemotherapy treatment) may be impacting a child’s neuropsychological presentation
-
Helping determine the source of challenging behaviors and emotions occurring at home or at school
