BENEFITS OF AN EVALUATION
We create a low stress, compassionate, and collaborative evaluation process. There are many reasons that families seek a neuropsychological evaluation, including: diagnostic clarification, to determine the impact of medical or emotional challenges on cognitive functioning, to advocate for educational support and testing accommodations, and to provide information on possible cognitive and academic factors underlying challenging behavior. Reasons for referral range from specific questions (i.e. "does my child have dyslexia?") to a more general sense that one's child is not meeting their potential.
Evaluations help parents, teachers, and students understand a student's learning profile. Using this information, we are able to tailor recommendations to support a student's academic, cognitive, social, and emotional needs. We are able to support students' abilities to use their strengths to overcome areas of vulnerability.
