Evaluation team

Our psychologists will review all information you provided and will determine the most appropriate course for answering your questions and addressing your concerns for your child. Not all questions require the use of psychological assessments; sometimes, we can answer your questions by sitting down with you and your child for a thorough interview and review of past evaluations and current services.

Multidisciplinary Evaluation Team (MET)

A team at the Center for Child Development evaluates children with complex developmental problems. Typically children have already participated in Birth to 3 or early childhood services but are not making progress as anticipated.

We provide evaluations for children, ages 2 to 6, who have one or more of the following:

• Developmental problems
• Behavior or adjustment difficulties
• Communication delays and disorders

Our multidisciplinary evaluation team includes the following health care professionals:

• Developmental pediatrician or advance practice provider
• Pediatric psychologist
• Speech/language pathologist

School performance program

The school performance program is a team of psychologists, speech and language pathologists and medical providers at the Center for Child Development. Their evaluations identify the reason for a child's struggles in school and needed supports. They provide evaluations for children ages 7-18. Common concerns and diagnoses include:

• Learning disabilities
• Intellectual disabilities
• Language disorders
• Autism and/or social challenges
• Anxiety related to academic challenges
• ADHD.

Both programs offer these services

• Family-centered, coordinated diagnostic evaluation by a multi-specialty team
• Recommendations regarding treatment and educational programs
• Counseling about diagnosis, intervention and prognosis
• Referral to other specialists as needed
• Follow-up evaluations to monitor the child's progress
