Comprehensive Evaluations

At TRAIN, we provide a wide range of evaluation services designed to meet the specific developmental, educational, and emotional needs of children from birth to sixteen. Whether you're seeking clarity on a diagnosis, support for school placement, or a tailored evaluation package, our approach is collaborative and centered around your child’s unique journey.

What We Offer

We specialize in the following types of evaluations:

  • Psychodiagnostic Evaluations: These assessments help identify psychological and neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, and other behavioral or emotional concerns. The goal is to provide a comprehensive understanding of your child's needs, which can guide appropriate interventions and support.

  • Psychoeducational Evaluations: For children experiencing learning difficulties or academic challenges, this evaluation helps assess cognitive abilities, academic performance, and potential learning disabilities. We identify both strengths and areas needing support, ensuring a complete understanding of how your child learns best.

  • IQ-Only Testing for School Placement: If you need an IQ assessment for school admissions or placement purposes, we offer IQ-only testing. This streamlined package focuses solely on intelligence measures that schools may require.

  • Bespoke Evaluation Packages: Our tailored evaluations are designed to address specific questions or concerns that parents or schools may have. Whether you’re seeking more insight into your child’s learning profile, social-emotional development, or behavioral patterns, we can create a custom evaluation plan that meets your needs.

Areas of Specialization

Our team has extensive experience in evaluating and diagnosing a variety of neurodevelopmental conditions, including:

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

  • Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

  • Learning Differences

  • Developmental Delays

  • Sensory Processing Disorders

We specialize in understanding complex neurodevelopmental profiles, ensuring that the evaluations address not just specific diagnostic criteria, but also the individual strengths and challenges that make your child unique.

What to Expect

The evaluation process typically includes:

  1. Initial Intake Session: During this session, we gather information about your child’s history, concerns, and any specific questions you may have. We will also discuss what you hope to learn from the evaluation to ensure that the final report meets your expectations.

  2. Testing Sessions: Based on the plan developed during the intake, we conduct a series of assessments tailored to your child’s developmental and educational profile. This may include cognitive testing, academic assessments, and behavioral evaluations, depending on your child's needs.

  3. Comprehensive Report: After the evaluation is complete, you will receive a detailed report outlining our findings. This report includes diagnostic information (if applicable), a thorough explanation of your child’s cognitive and emotional profile, and personalized recommendations for support at home, in school, and in the community.

  4. Feedback and Recommendations: In the final feedback session, we walk you through the results and answer any questions you have. We also discuss next steps, including treatment options, school accommodations, or therapeutic interventions based on the findings.

A Collaborative Process

Our evaluation process is highly collaborative. We know that no one knows your child better than you do, so we work closely with parents throughout every stage of the evaluation. From the initial intake to the final feedback session, we ensure open communication and transparency. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, express concerns, and share your goals for the evaluation. We want to make sure that by the end of the process, you feel informed and empowered with the insights and recommendations that matter most to your family.
