Psychoeducational Evaluations
Psychoeducational evaluations are assessments of a child’s cognitive abilities and academic skills. Cognitive abilities (considered neuropsychological processes) include attention, memory, processing speed, and executive functioning (i.e., self-management). Also included are reasoning processes in verbal, nonverbal, and visual-spatial areas. Academic skills are more specific and school-based. Knowledge and application of skills in reading, writing, and math provide the foundation for academic levels of functioning. Comprehensive evaluations are further tailored to examine twice-exceptionality, ADHD, executive function deficits, and learning disabilities (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia). Evaluations are critical for understanding a child’s capabilities and struggles, as well as determining an appropriate educational environment. Evaluations are for 5 year-olds up to college-aged students and are conducted in Pasadena, MD.
