The Assessment Roadmap
4
Attend a 90 minute, in-person clinical interview. Based on what questions you want answered, I will assign questionnaires and behavior checklists.
3
Attend 4-8 hours of in-person testing. This is usually done in one day.
5
If applicable, additional information will be gathered from relevant people such as your child’s teacher(s), childcare provider(s), or therapist and/or other healthcare providers.
Attend a 90 minute, in-person feedback session to discuss results and recommendations.
What does the day of testing look like?
The day of testing typically begins at 9:00am
Scheduled lunch break at 12:00pm
Depending on the assessment package, testing resumes in the afternoon at 1:00pm
Testing concludes by 4:00pm at the latest
Considerations:
If you/your child is on certain psychiatric medications (e.g., ADHD medications), we can discuss whether medications should be taken on testing day.
There will be planned breaks (in addition to lunch) throughout the testing day.
Parent(s) are welcome to wait in the office waiting room throughout the day. You will have access to guest WiFi, comfortable seating, and public restroom access.

What is the expected timeline?
I know that when you reach out, you are motivated to get the answers and support as soon as possible. My goal is to ensure a smooth scheduling process and an efficient turn-around for you to have your report.
Testing is scheduled within 4-6 weeks of our initial telephone consultation.
Feedback sessions are typically scheduled 2-3 weeks after the testing session.
You will receive your report 3-5 business days after the feedback session.
