Leonard Evaluation's Child Evaluations

Psychological, Educational, Psychoeducational & Neuropsychological Assessments for Children Ages 2–12.

Is your child struggling with attention, behavior, emotions, learning, or social skills? Are you receiving conflicting feedback from teachers, pediatricians, or therapists—or wondering if your child’s challenges go beyond what’s typical?  A comprehensive child evaluation can uncover the root causes of your child’s difficulties and provide clear, evidence-based recommendations. Whether you're pursuing answers for school services, emotional support, or long-term planning, our assessments are designed to guide you with clarity and compassion.

🔍 What’s Included in a Child Psychoeducational Evaluation

We offer individualized, developmentally appropriate evaluations for children ages 2–12. Each assessment is customized based on the referral concerns and may focus on psychological, educational, psychoeducational, or neuropsychological questions—or a combination of all four.  Types of evaluations include:

  • Psychological Evaluations – To assess emotional well-being, mood, behavior, self-regulation, and social functioning
  • Educational & Psychoeducational Evaluations – To assess reading, writing, math, processing skills, and learning differences (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia)
  • Neuropsychological Evaluations – To assess attention, memory, executive functioning, visual-spatial reasoning, and developmental milestones
  • Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluations – For ADHD, autism spectrum, anxiety, depression, trauma, learning disabilities, or behavioral concerns

Each child evaluation may include:

  • Parent interview and developmental/educational history
  • Play-based clinical interview and behavioral observations
  • Cognitive testing (e.g., memory, processing speed, reasoning)
  • Academic achievement testing in reading, writing, and math
  • Language processing, phonological awareness, and executive functioning tasks
  • Behavior, social-emotional, and adaptive functioning checklists
  • Autism-specific screening (e.g., ADOS-2, MIGDAS-2) if appropriate
  • Teacher feedback and school record review (with consent)
  • Integration of results into a clear, family-friendly written report with tailored recommendations

We take a child-centered, whole-person approach—exploring how your child thinks, learns, feels, and behaves across environments.

🧠 Benefits of a Child Psychoeducational Evaluation

Children don’t always have the words to explain their struggles—but their behavior, learning patterns, and emotions tell a story. A comprehensive evaluation helps uncover what’s beneath the surface, distinguish between overlapping diagnoses, and guide the right supports.  Our evaluations help families:

  • Understand whether symptoms reflect ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, or a learning disability
  • Access services such as IEPs, 504 Plans, reading/writing/math interventions, or behavioral support
  • Clarify whether current strategies or therapies are truly meeting your child’s needs
  • Support school placement decisions or gifted evaluations
  • Gain peace of mind through data-informed, expert guidance
  • Receive documentation for schools, therapists, and support teams

With the right diagnosis—and the right plan—children can begin to thrive both academically and emotionally.
