Assessment to identify Dyslexia

Dyslexia is a learning difference that affects reading, writing, and spelling. It's not a reflection of intelligence, but rather a different way the brain processes language. If you or your child are struggling with these skills, a professional assessment can provide answers and a path forward.

Who Can Benefit from a Dyslexia Assessment?

Our psychology center specializes in understanding learning differences. We offer comprehensive assessments for:

  • Children with Reading Difficulties: If your child is struggling to learn to read, is falling behind peers, or shows a strong dislike for reading and writing, an assessment can determine if dyslexia is a factor.

  • Adults with Lifelong Challenges: Dyslexia can go undiagnosed for years. If you've always struggled with reading, writing, or spelling, an adult assessment can finally shed light on your difficulties and offer strategies for success.

  • Individuals with a Family History of Dyslexia: Dyslexia often runs in families. If you have relatives with dyslexia, an assessment can be preventative and informative, even if you haven't noticed significant difficulties yourself.

  • Anyone Seeking to Understand Their Learning Style: Even if you're not experiencing significant challenges, a dyslexia assessment can provide valuable insights into your unique learning strengths and weaknesses.

Our Approach:

Our psychologists are experts in assessing and supporting individuals with dyslexia. We offer:

  • Comprehensive Dyslexia Evaluations: We utilize standardized tests and clinical interviews to assess phonological awareness, decoding skills, reading fluency, spelling, and other language-related abilities.

  • Individualized Assessment Reports: You'll receive a detailed report explaining the results of the assessment, a diagnosis (if applicable), and personalized recommendations for support.

  • Connections to Resources: We can connect you with tutors, educational therapists, and other professionals who specialize in dyslexia intervention.

  • Strategies for Success: We provide guidance on how to navigate academic or professional environments with dyslexia, including accommodations and assistive technology.
