Evaluations may be helpful when a child:
Is struggling in school but it is not clear why
Has been diagnosed with ADHD, a learning disability, or autism and you want a deeper understanding of their profile
Has a medical condition or diagnosis that affects thinking or learning (i.e., cognitive skills)
Has uneven skills — excelling in some areas while struggling in others
Is having behavioral or emotional difficulties that seem connected to how they learn or process information
