Learning Disability Evaluations
What Is a Learning Disability Evaluation?
A learning disability evaluation assesses the cognitive, academic, and processing skills needed for success in reading, writing, math, and executive functioning. It helps determine whether a person meets criteria for a specific learning disorder (such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, or dyscalculia), and identifies the tools and strategies needed for support.
What We Assess
- Intellectual functioning (IQ)
- Academic achievement (reading, writing, math)
- Working memory & processing speed
- Phonological awareness & auditory processing
- Visual-spatial reasoning
- Executive functioning (attention, planning, organization)
Who Should Consider an Evaluation?
- Children or teens struggling in school despite effort
- Students with inconsistent or below-grade-level academic performance
- Individuals with attention or memory difficulties
- Adults who have always struggled with reading, writing, or math
- Anyone seeking formal documentation for IEP, 504 Plans, or academic accommodations
Why It Matters
Learning disabilities are neurologically-based, not intelligence-based. Early identification and the right intervention can make all the difference. Our evaluations help families and educators work together to create personalized, evidence-based plans for success—academically and emotionally.
