A consultation is the right first step if you aren’t quite sure what you need. Maybe you know something is going on with your child, but you wonder, “Is it just a phase?” You might be asking yourself, “Is this really a problem, or just a bump in the road?”
Or you may suspect a learning or processing problem, and you want to know more about your options. Who can you talk to? Are there books or websites that would be good resources? Would your child benefit from therapy? Or maybe just a different parenting approach? If your child needs an evaluation, what kind of testing would be best? How do you go about getting an evaluation?
Consultations are also a great option if your child had an evaluation somewhere else, but you don’t understand the results or you need a second opinion. You’ll have someone who can cut through the jargon and help you make sense of the results, discuss your current concerns, and provide you with concrete next steps on how to best help your child succeed.
