Assessment

Psychoeducational Assessment

A psychoeducational assessment is a comprehensive and systematic investigation of a child’s cognitive processing abilities, current level of academic functioning, language, social-emotional skills, and behavioral functioning. Cognitive Processing measures include visual processing, auditory processing, phonological processing, memory and learning, attention/concentration, and executive functioning.

If your child is struggling in school, a psychoeducational assessment can help you understand their learning profile and how best to support them.

Assessment can investigate areas such as:

  • Learning Disability including Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia
  • Attention Deficit Disorder and impact on school performance
  • Anxiety/Depression and impact on school performance
  • Autism
  • Intellectual Disability

Rates are determined at the time of the consultation and based on the nature of the evaluation. Fees range from $2500 to $5000.

Independent Education Evaluation

An Independent Educational Evaluation, also known as an IEE, is an evaluation conducted by a neutral, third-party professional not affiliated with the school district that serves your child. Parents and guardians can request an IEE for their child if they disagree with the results of the evaluation conducted by the school district.
