Child & Teen Assessments
Finding an assessment for a higher masking or lower support needs child or teen can be challenging. Many children will be missed as they mask neurodivergent traits during their assessment or the assessment tools used are not capturing non-traditional presentations of Autism or ADHD. Our assessments are designed to identify all neurodivergent children, regardless of their presentation.
Better understand your child and the accommodations they need
Children thrive when parents and teachers understand their neuro-type and can make accommodations to support the way they communicate, connect, learn, and regulate emotions. Learning more about your child’s neuro-type can deepen your relationship with them; supporting a more harmonious and connected family dynamic. Parents are able to stay more regulated when they understand the reason for their child’s struggles and how to help them through the moment.
Comprehensive Psychological Testing
Comprehensive psychological testing is a deep dive into your child’s psychological differences, strengths, and support needs. This testing is completed by a licensed psychologist and includes a full battery of test measures to help rule in/out ADHD, Autism, and any other co-occurring diagnosis and differences (PDA, depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, social anxiety, etc). This evaluation is for you if you are looking to understand the complete picture of your child’s mental health and neutoype with a robust exploration of all possible diagnosis.
