Our Services:
-
Learning Disorder/Dyslexia Assessment: Using interview, review of educational records, and individual assessments, we specialize in uncovering learning disorders that might hinder a child's educational progress. Our approach identifies the specific challenges a child faces, guiding the development of effective strategies and interventions.
​
-
ADHD Assessment: We use interview, observation, and standardized assessments to diagnose attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. We can supplement diagnosis with recommendations for addressing these difficulties at school and at home, including how to support executive functioning challenges.
​
-
Gifted Assessment: We evaluate for the presence of superior cognitive abilities or specific academic abilities. We use nationally normed assessments approved by the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce for gifted identification.
​
-
Consultation: Our involvement doesn't stop after assessment. We offer follow-up consultation meetings with families. We can also accompany you to school meetings, and offer support to you as you navigate the special education process.
​
-
Document Review: We provide expert review of school documents including Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), Section 504 Plans, and Evaluation Team Reports (ETRs). In-depth knowledge of special education law allows us to provide detailed feedback and recommendations that advocates for best practices for your child.

Unfortunately, many insurance providers do not include coverage for the assessment of dyslexia or other learning disorders. We do not currently accept private insurance. We can provide a superbill upon request, to submit to your insurance company, for possible partial reimbursement of services.
