About Us

" I focus primarily on evaluating children, adolescents and adults through Psychological or Psychoeducational Testing. Testing can I help people to discover their intellectual strengths and weaknesses, learning style, emotional triggers and better ways to deal with stress or confusion. In addition to diagnosing things like ADHD, Anxiety Disorders, Depression, Aspergers, Autism, Mood Disorders and Learning Disabilities (something most school systems are unable to do when testing students who are struggling), I can help kids and adults access the services (e.g., therapeutic, educational, vocational and/or pharmacological) that are most likely to improve the quality of their lives. ", Psychological testing is typically billed as 8 to 14 hours, as it includes the scoring and writing time, as well as the one on one time with the client. Most insurance companies will pay for the majority of the testing, if deemed medically necessary (but sometimes not the educational piece). , Once the testing is completed and the report is written up, it can be provided (with a written release) to therapists, physicians, clinical nurse specialists, school systems, or other parties in order to provide them with recommendations for home, therapy, medical approaches or school.
