Learn More About Comprehensive Evaluation

  • Based on our experience, therapeutic progress occurs more quickly when we conduct our own thorough evaluation prior to beginning therapy. Our team often identifies areas of difficulty that were not identified by previous evaluation teams.

  • We will take a detailed case history, review any pertinent documents family has shared, conduct appropriate standardized assessments and/or informal measures. We will likely ask questions that other providers have never asked. We pride ourselves in our thorough evaluations.

Why does Comprehensive Evaluation Matter?

Obtaining an accurate baseline of a client’s level of functioning is important for progress monitoring. We ensure we are investigating the root causes of the child’s difficulties, resulting in a differential diagnosis. This is pertinent in order to choose the appropriate treatment approach for each client.
