On-Line Evaluation Test
We believe that a thorough evaluation is the most important step that can be taken before treatment proceeds. A free initial evaluation is provided to determine an overall picture of the child's needs. Following that, more specific tests are used to pinpoint learning skills deficits needing remediation.
The following is a list of the areas that will be thoroughly assessed before treatment is initiated.
- Complete vision analysis to include acuity assessment, visual skills (tracking, eye teaming, focus), and a visual efficiency evaluation. Specific testing is also undertaken for visual processing which will include; fixation speed, selective attention, reversal frequency, visual memory, visualization, and visual-motor integration.
- A comprehensive auditory processing assessment will include; long and short term memory, processing speed, sound blending, sound segmenting, reasoning, comprehension,
- Neurological assessment to determine the integration of visual and auditory information.
- A comprehensive evaluation of mental skills to determine relative strengths and weaknesses in brain function.
- An assessment of how the child interacts with the learning environment both at school and home. This includes assessment for ADD, ADHD, NVLD, and other similar disorders.
Adult & Child Psychology
Children who perform below their potential resulting from deficient processing skills need therapies that integrate all sensory systems. Schools can only provide educational experiences as they lack the time and training to properly serve children with learning skills outside the norm. By them offering smaller group resource programs a tutorial experience is possible. However, the core difficulties are seldom addressed. Even if properly evaluated, students and parents must run a gauntlet of caring professionals each unknown to the next, often duplicating services with non-productive results.
Cognitive Development Associates fully evaluates all contributing factors that create learning disabilities. Then, using an in-house integrated team approach efficiently remediates deficiencies saving time and money.
