Assessment

What is a psycho-educational assessment? It is an in-depth investigation into how a person learns and functions. As a licensed educational psychologist I offer psycho-educational assessments for children and adults.

Psycho-educational assessments can determine the presence of:

• ADHD/ADD

• Learning disabilities including dyslexia

• Autism

• Intellectual Disability

• Other factors impacting learning

A typical assessment includes:

• background information including document reviews, interviews, and observations

• intelligence testing

• processing testing (visual, motor, memory, as needed)

• rating scales for social/emotional functioning, adaptive function, anxiety, ADHD, Autism, etc. (as appropriate)

• academic testing

All the data is then analyzed and the results are shared. An in-depth report may be written.

**It should be noted that psycho-educational assessments may be provided for free by your local public schools.**
