The Clinic at PAW

Welcome to The Clinic at PAW, a  professional practice specializing in psycho-educational evaluations located within Psychotherapy  Associates of Winchester. Our mission is to support individuals and families by providing comprehensive assessments that promote a better understanding of cognitive, academic, and emotional strengths and challenges.

We offer psycho-educational evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults who may be experiencing academic difficulties, learning challenges, or behavioral concerns. Our evaluations are thorough and tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. Using a combination of standardized testing, interviews, and observational data, we aim to identify specific learning disabilities, ADHD, autism, intellectual functioning, emotional / behavior functioning and other factors that may be influencing academic and /or life success.Upon completion of the evaluation, we provide detailed reports that include recommendations for educational interventions, accommodations, and strategies to support success. At The Clinic at PAW, we understand the importance of a well-rounded evaluation.

Evalation services are provided by school psychologists Heidi Buckner and Buffie Kulton.  Both Heidi and Buffie have significant experience in both education and evaluation.  They are committed to working with clients to provide comprehensive psychological and educational evaluations that address referral concerns and provide clear, actionable treatment recommendations. 

Fees and Insurance:  

Fees for evaluation range between $2500 - $3000.  Details on the exact cost and payment will be provided upon initiation of a full evaluation. 

The Clinic at PAW does not participate with insurance and is cash pay. Your health insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance company to which The Clinic at PAW is not a party. The Clinic at PAW is considered an out-of-network provider, and you will need to inquire as to your benefits related to services covered. One of the benefits of not contracting directly with insurance carriers is that we are responsible and accountable only to our clients. This allows us to maintain loyalty to our clients and avoid conflicts of interest. Please be aware that The Clinic at PAW has no relationship with Medicare and Medicaid, so claims submitted for reimbursement from those programs will be denied.
