- Review of background information, school records, and previous evaluations
- A clinical interview
- Completion of rating scales by parent, child and teacher/provider
- Standardized testing
- Projective assessments
Clinical Interviews and face to face testing can last from one to four hours. Evaluations can be broken into multiple sessions to accommodate the needs of the child and the family.
Because parents will need to meet with the psychologist without the child present, they will need to bring a responsible person to monitor the child while they are meeting with the psychologist or will need to schedule an additional appointment to complete that portion of the assessment at a different time.
