Learning Disabilities Evaluation

For children:
Is your child:

Getting failing grades in school?
Taking much too long to complete homework?
Slow to remember facts and learn new skills?
Having trouble learning to read?
Complaining that the teacher goes too fast?

Are teachers talking about holding your child back a grade?

Its scary to think that your child is struggling to learn, and its very important that you seek help as soon as you realize that your child is having difficulty with school learning. Studies show that 80% of learning disabilities affect reading and language. Of those children, 90% will read normally if they receive help by the first grade.

If you are worn out from worrying about your child’s future and you’re getting nowhere with your child’s school, we can help. The most important thing you can do immediately is to have your child evaluated by a professional. The most important reason to get help early is to spare your child the frustration and sense of failure when they’re not doing as well as their peers in school, and they don’t know why.

We can help you fully understand your child’s unique learning needs, and help you access accommodations and supports that create success for your child.

All assessment packages include a written report and the complete package gives you a full explanation of your child’s learning needs, strengths and weaknesses, and suggestions for accommodations. We give a 10% discount for payment in advance. Call us now at 925-777-9540 or e-mail at psychinstitute@comcast.net for more information and an appointment.

Learning disabilities can co-occur with attention-deficit disorder and oppositional behavior, so we encourage you to check out our pages devoted to those topics.
