Educational and Psychoeducational evaluations can be
enormously helpful to your child. However, it still may be a
difficult decision to make. It’s a big commitment in time and
finances and the stakes can sometimes feel high. Naturally it is
important to choose the right person for the job…someone who
will be able to really appreciate your child’s strengths while
also giving you the clarity and the practical recommendations
you are looking for to help your child succeed academically and
socially.
That is our mission. To bring clarity to your child’s challenges
so that solutions can be recommended.
Time and time again, we hear from parents who are not clear as
to why their child isn’t doing as well as he or she should be
doing. Or their child may seem upset, unfocused or unduly quiet
or oppositional. It can be unclear as to what is going on. You
may suspect that your child has ADHD or some type of learning
difference. How does your child learn vs. the other children in
his/her class? You and your child’s teachers may have thought it
was clear what the problem was but current intervention
strategies have not been as effective as you all had hoped. In
all these and many similar situations, testing can help to
explain what’s going on in greater detail and can provide
concrete, real-life suggestions for how to help your child.
That is where we come in. Each one of our psychologists is
expertly trained with significant experience in administering
only the current, most relevant testing batteries available
today. More importantly, they are all exceptional in
interpreting what the data shows and sharing it with you in a
down to earth, easy to understand manner. Additionally, you may
also need somebody who can guide you in advocating for your
child and who can help you get the services and accommodations
your child may need in order to learn and succeed.
But above all else, we know how important it is to work with
someone you can like and trust. Obviously, you want to know that
your child is in the best hands possible. To that end, the
information we are sharing with you in this website is designed
as a starting point for you to learn more about us and about our
testing services. If you wish to begin the process of finally
understanding what is going on with your child, we are here for
you.

major and even help applying to college. Bright Futures
