If you are looking for a formal diagnosis, school accommodations, or have specific academic concerns, you likely need a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation. If you are hoping to learn more about your child's social, emotional, or behavioral functioning in order to inform therapy goals, gain a deeper understanding of your child, or address difficulties within the family, a therapeutic/collaborative evaluation might be right for you. I am happy to more fully discuss your options and help you decide if and what type of evaluation is best for you.
