How The Mind Works can Help
Psycho-Educational Evaluation
Looking specifically at educational implications, a psycho-educational evaluation focuses on better understanding your child’s learning strengths and weaknesses and how to best support them in the school setting.
School Neuropsychological Evaluation
A School Neuropsychological evaluation includes most components of a psycho-educational evaluation but combines this approach with specific assessments tailored to an area of concern. This allows for a comprehensive understanding of the child’s learning profile and fuel individualized recommendations to help your child succeed.
ADHD Testing
ADHD testing is often part of a psycho-educational evaluation or a school neuropsychological evaluation when it is a specific concern for your child. This can help determine if ADHD, or Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is impacting your child’s academic progress.
Dyslexia Testing
Dyslexia testing is often part of a psycho-educational evaluation or a school neuropsychological evaluation when it is a specific concern for your child. This can help determine if dyslexia is impacting your child’s reading progress.
Learning Disability Testing
Learning Disability testing is often part of a psycho-educational evaluation or a school neuropsychological evaluation. Discrepancies between a child’s cognitive ability and academic achievement are indicative of learning differences. These can occur in reading, writing, or math.
Autism Testing
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) assessment can help identify the presence or absence of ASD and the potential impact on a child’s academic and social functioning.
IQ Testing
IQ testing allows for enrichment opportunities and correct placement within school programming. This could be used for private school admissions, gifted and talented programs, or specialized learning programs.
