Mark and Elizabeth specialize in providing comprehensive neuropsychological and psychoeducational evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults. These assessments provide detailed information about an individual’s strengths and needs, including intellectual ability, academic skills, executive functioning skills, psychological functioning, and any relevant disabilities. Thus, they are able to effectively identify giftedness, cognitive impairment, specific learning disabilities (such as dyslexia), problems with working memory, processing speed, attention, impulse control, hyperactivity, mood regulation, and social-emotional functioning (including assessment of autism spectrum disorders).
Skills like adaptable thinking, planning, self-control, working memory, time management, and organization are known collectively as executive function. They help us with everything from getting dressed in the morning to completing a science project. While these skills come naturally for most of us, some children need to be taught how to execute tasks in an expected manner. Often there are underlying symptoms of ADHD.
