Psychological & Educational Testing
I offer comprehensive educational and psychological evaluations for children, teens and adults. Each test battery is tailored to the individual based on specific questions or concerns. My comprehensive evaluation includes a detailed clinical interview, a structured diagnostic assessment using standardized testing materials, and the collection of collateral information from other professionals involved in the individual’s education or treatment (such as teachers, physicians, or therapists)- and if needed, I also conduct a school observation. At the conclusion of the evaluation, the client will receive verbal feedback on the evaluation, and a detailed written report that includes recommendations for specific services and interventions.
Types of testing:
Attention/ADHD testing examines both auditory and visual concentration and attention over short and sustained periods.
Cognitive testing provides the foundation for understanding how an individual processes information in the areas of verbal comprehension, working memory, perceptual reasoning, and processing speed.
Academic testing examines areas of learning such as reading, writing, spelling, and mathematics abilities.
Emotional testing examines a person’s thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and interpersonal interactions in order to understand emotional or social difficulties, unhealthy behavior patterns, or obstacles to growth.
Executive/Neuro-processing testing examines a wide range of skills that are centered around organization, planning, visual-motor integration skills which are essential for academic success.
