Evaluations

Do you or your child want to understand more about their strengths, weaknesses and barriers to growth? Is your child experiencing problems in school? Are you uncertain if you or your child are in the right program or school? Do you have questions about  your child?

Dr. Smith offers assessments that use feedback from your child and the family along with cognitive, academic and emotional findings to help determine the most appropriate interventions and recommendations for you or your child.

The full-scale evaluations look at your child’s intelligence, abilities and knowledge as well as their approaches to learning to determine academic potential. The tests include tasks to explore emotional factors and a personality assessment to help understand how they function in their environment.

After sharing the collection of observations and interview data, you’ll get a clearer picture of your child’s academic potential and their personality in various environments. Dr. Smith makes specific recommendations for your child that focus on their strongest areas, the areas that need improvement and their individual interests.
