When should my child be referred? If you have a school-age child who is struggling in school and losing confidence, an evaluation may be appropriate to determine their strengths and weaknesses and identify any underlying learning or emotional difficulties. If your child is preschool-age or younger and having difficulty meeting developmental milestones you may want to have your child evaluated to determine a proper course of treatment.
Prior to your appointment, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire that pertains to your child's development, medical history, and any school-related information (if applicable). You will be asked to bring the questionnaire (already filled out) to your first appointment where the information will be reviewed and expanded upon.
The first session is typically an initial consult and only the parent(s) attends this meeting. If psychological testing is deemed appropriate then a follow-up appointment will be made for the parent(s) and child. After testing is completed a feedback session will be scheduled and a report will be issued.
