Neuropsychological and Psychoeducational Evaluations
Testing typically covers all areas that may affect a student’s ability to learn and thrive. Each evaluation is carefully tailored to provide a comprehensive assessment of both strengths and challenges. Because each client has unique needs, I do not use a single fixed battery for every case. Instead, the testing is adaptive, allowing for adjustments throughout the assessment process. While all areas impacting functioning are addressed, the greatest depth of evaluation is given to those that are most concerning or problematic for the individual.
For high school and college students, the selected battery of tests includes those expected by the College Board and colleges, as well as graduate and professional schools, when determining eligibility for accommodations.
