Who needs a psychoeducational evaluation?

Psychoeducational evaluations can be used for a variety of reasons. 

The most common use is to determine if a child has special needs which might need to be accommodated in the public school setting. But there are a few others.

  • Some people are interested in their cognitive abilities.
  • People want to know if there is something that isn't working correctly.
  • Sometimes people want to determine if they can qualify for accommodations on national testing such as the ACT, SAT, GMAT, GRE, LSAT, etc.
  • They might be eligible for exclusions from certain classes in college, such as a foreign language exemption.
  • Another common reason is for accommodations in their college courses, such as extended time or a copy of notes ahead of time.

I can help in any of these situations. Please call 843-376-3112 to schedule an appointment or for a free consultation.

What does it all mean? It can be very confusing when you receive a psychoeducational report. Often, these reports are written using language that isn't very clear for people who haven't spent years studying it. It can be difficult even for those with years of experience trying to interpret information that hasn't been presented clearly.

I can help. Please call me for a free consultation. I can help explain why the report says what it says or what it means when it says something that isn't obvious.

Help in a difficult time

Facing a psychoeducational evaluation can be a daunting task.

Who will conduct the evaluation?
What evaluation components are necessary?
What is happening with my evaluation results?

What does it all mean?

I can help with those concerns. As a licensed psychoeducational specialist who has been conducting evaluations for nearly 15 years, I am fluent in evaluation procedures and can help translate psychological and educational jargon into easily understandable, everyday conversation. Teachers and psychologists like to use big words because they transmit information quickly and easily amongst professionals. Sometimes we forget that we need to translate it into more recognizable language.
