School Psychoeducational Evaluations in Cornelius
At Best Life Mental Health & Wellness, we provide school psychoeducational evaluations to help children and adolescents reach their full potential. Our assessments identify neurodevelopmental and learning differences, including ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Intellectual Disabilities, and Specific Learning Disorders. Using evidence-based, psychological principles, we evaluate cognitive strengths, executive functioning, and social-emotional skills, as well as academic skills to give families a clear understanding of each child’s unique profile. These insights help guide academic planning, learning strategies, and supportive interventions to foster growth and success.
