Psycho-Educational Evaluation

Comprehensive cognitive and academic assessment

A comprehensive assessment that examines both cognitive abilities and academic skills to understand how a child learns best. This evaluation combines standardized testing with observational data to create a complete picture of learning strengths and challenges.

What This Assessment Includes:

IQ Testing: Comprehensive cognitive ability assessment

Academic Achievement: Reading, writing, math skills evaluation

Processing Speed: How quickly information is processed

Working Memory: Ability to hold and manipulate information

Executive Function: Planning, organization, and self-regulation

Learning Style Analysis: How your child learns most effectively

Best For: Children experiencing academic difficulties, suspected learning disabilities, giftedness identification, or educational planning needs. Provides foundation for IEP/504 plan development.

Neurodiverse Assessments

Specialized evaluations for neurodevelopmental differences

Specialized assessments designed to identify and understand neurodivergent conditions including autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurodevelopmental differences. These evaluations celebrate neurodiversity while identifying support needs.

Specific Assessment Areas:

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Social communication, repetitive behaviors, sensory processing, and adaptive functioning assessment using ADOS-2 and ADI-R protocols.

ADHD Evaluation

Attention, hyperactivity, impulsivity assessment with behavioral rating scales, continuous performance testing, and executive function measures.

Dyslexia Assessment

Phonological processing, reading fluency, decoding skills, and language-based learning difficulties evaluation.

Other Conditions

Dyscalculia, dysgraphia, sensory processing disorder, and other neurodevelopmental differences.

Best For: Suspected neurodivergent conditions, second opinions, diagnostic clarification, and understanding your child's unique neurological profile for appropriate support planning.
