Frequently Asked Questions

Who should come to the evaluation?

I see children with attention problems, learning challenges, mental health concerns, and/or neurological conditions. The evaluation provides information about how a child's brain works and reveals any underlying mental health diagnoses.

What do we need to bring to the evaluation?

On the day of testing, I ask parents to bring the paperwork provided ahead of time, previous psychological and educational testing, and established formal education plans, like a 504-plan and/or an IEP. The evaluation is typically four to five hours, so families bring snacks and a lunch as well.

What if my child is already diagnosed?

I often evaluate children with known diagnoses to assess how their brains are developing in the context of their diagnoses. I also ensure that the diagnoses are appropriate and assess for additional challenges that might be hindering development.

Why don't you use insurance?

Insurance companies limit the services that I can provide to my patients. I provide families with insurance codes so they can seek reimbursement.
