A 1-2-hour interview with parents (Typically over video chat). Parents are the experts on their children. In this session we want to hear about your child’s unique strengths and challenges. We’ll also want to gather information about their early childhood development.
 

Parent and teacher rating scales. We will send 2-4 rating scales over email to get quantitative data on parents’ and teachers’ perspectives on things like social skills, adaptive skills, attention and executive functioning, and emotional and behavioral functioning.  
 

2-4 hours of testing in office. We work with parents to determine how much testing will be necessary to answer the specific diagnostic questions.  
 

Phone consultation with providers (as needed). It can be helpful to gather the perspectives of important people in the child’s life such as different therapists or teachers.
 

A 2-hour feedback session (Typically over video chat). We spend time synthesizing all the data points from the pieces listed above and we review the results. This includes the data from the direct testing, strengths, areas of challenge, diagnoses if relevant, and recommendations.  
 

A comprehensive report. We document all pieces of the evaluation in a long report that can be shared with school, providers, and/or anyone in the child’s life who may find it helpful. Parents are in charge of this report and who to send it to.
