Psychological testing ยท Louisville, KY

When something isn't adding up at home or at school.

A comprehensive evaluation for ages 3 to 18 with one of our clinicians, and a written report you can share with teachers and doctors. Open to every family, members or not. It starts with a free 15-minute call.

What a comprehensive evaluation is

An in-depth look at how your child thinks, learns, feels, and behaves. The results show where your child is strong and where they need help, so you, their teachers, and their doctors can choose the right support. Schools can use the report to set up accommodations.

Testing can help answer

  • Why is my child struggling at school?
  • Could my child have ADHD, autism, or a learning difference?
  • How can I better support my child's emotions or behavior?
