WE ARE AN ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENTLY PRACTICING PROFESSIONALS who specialize in behavior and learning
Neurodevelopmental Evaluations
Independent practitioners provide comprehensive evaluations for preschoolers through young adults. This may include assessment of cognitive, social-emotional, academic, and adaptive-behavioral functioning. Evaluation is conducted with evidence-based practice guidelines by licensed doctoral psychologists.
