A psycho-educational evaluation should be considered if a child is struggling academically despite previous interventions and there are concerns about potential learning disabilities or behavioral, attention or emotional problems. It involves a battery of standardized assessments to evaluate a child’s cognitive, language and academic skills as well as testing to assess attention, executive functioning, behavior and social-emotional functioning. The goal of psycho-educational testing is to identify underlying issues that may be adversely impacting the child’s learning and to provide recommendations for services and supports that would allow the child to be successful at school.
This assessment provides information regarding a child’s overall intellectual functioning in addition to specific areas of cognitive processing. This type of evaluation is offered to parents who are interested in learning more about their child’s intellectual profile and may be required for admission into certain gifted programs.
Therapy services are offered for a variety of needs aimed at increasing personal development and growth necessary for facing life’s challenges. Whether your child or adolescent is struggling with social-emotional, behavioral, executive function or attention related deficits, therapy can help to address the day-to-day challenges they face and help them function more successfully at school and within their families and social relationships.
