Psychological Evaluations

Children may be referred for testing to determine their levels of intellectual, or emotional functioning, areas of strengths and weaknesses, and styles of learning and processing information. This testing is useful for diagnostic purposes, treatment planning, and offering care recommendations for home and school.

Evaluation is a 3 step process. 

Diagnostic Interview: You and your provider will meet to discuss the concerns and reasons for testing that is bringing you to CAPA. This will allow provider to better understand the testing needed to address your questions and concerns. 

Evaluation: The amount of testing will depend on your child’s individual needs and will be discussed with you prior to the evaluation day. Testing typically takes about 2-3 hours. 

Feedback Session: Our provider will meet with you to review the final report and explain all of the testing scores and findings. If applicable, you will be informed of any diagnoses and be provided with recommendations and referral as needed.
