Assessment & Evaluation / Learning Disability Evaluation
School age through adults
Psychoeducational testing shows exactly how someone reads, writes, does math, and processes information. The results explain the struggle and back up the support at school, in college, and at work.
Is it time?
Learning disabilities aren’t about intelligence or effort. They’re differences in how the brain handles specific kinds of information.
Adults can be evaluated too, whether for college, licensing exams, workplace accommodations, or simply to finally understand a lifelong struggle.
What we look at
We look at the building blocks of learning so recommendations can be specific, not generic.
Decoding, fluency, and comprehension.
Handwriting, spelling, and written expression.
Calculation, math fluency, and problem solving.
Reasoning, verbal and visual skills, and overall cognitive ability.
How quickly and accurately information is taken in and held.
Including whether ADHD or language differences are part of the picture.
How it works
The same clinicians stay with you from the first call through your feedback session, and into treatment if you want it.
We review school records, prior testing, and your concerns, and set clear questions for the evaluation.
One-on-one academic and cognitive testing, often split across sessions for younger students.
We walk through your results in plain language and answer every question.
Treatment can begin here with providers who already know your results.
What you leave with
From root to branch
Educational therapy, reading, writing, and math intervention, IEP and 504 support, and assistive technology guidance all happen here, built directly on your evaluation.
