Every Child Counts In This Journey

Our Specialties

  • We maintain deep expertise in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) through years of conducting comprehensive evaluations, developing legally compliant Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and providing expert testimony in educational hearings. This proficiency ensures accurate identification of disabilities, appropriate placement decisions, and delivery of evidence-based supports that meet federal legal standards. Understanding and applying IDEA is essential to safeguarding students’ rights, securing access to a free appropriate public education (FAPE),

  • We have conducted Independent Educational Evaluations (IEEs) for students from elementary through high school across a wide range of circumstances. Our casework includes matters related to probation and criminal justice, placements in nonpublic schools, and highly complex educational and behavioral presentations. Each evaluation integrates multidisciplinary assessment methods, combining academic, cognitive, social-emotional, and behavioral data. We pride ourselves on in-depth assessments that produce thorough, defensible findings and actionable recommendations. Our reports are crafted to support legal proceedings, school planning, and individualized interventions with clarity and professional rigor.

  • We have a long history of serving Title I schools that face cultural and environmental barriers, providing trauma-informed assessments, culturally responsive interventions, and staff training tailored to community needs. We honor and respect the lived experiences of students, families, and educators by integrating their voices into assessment planning and treatment goals. Our teams prioritize equity by using language-accessible materials, flexible scheduling, and outreach strategies that reduce logistical and cultural barriers to care.

Our Services

  • Bilingual Assessments

    We provide specialized bilingual assessment for newcomers, dual-language learners, and English Language Learners. Our services go beyond simple translation: we use research-based methods and trained school psychologists to distinguish language acquisition from learning disabilities, ensuring accurate evaluation findings and equitable, appropriate educational supports.

  • Academic Assessments

    Academic tests in a psychoeducational evaluation show learning strengths, weaknesses, and needs. They connect gaps in school achievement to thinking skills, guiding targeted interventions and individualized education plans. We also offer bilingual academic testing.

  • Preschool Assessments

    PsychEd Evaluations specializes in comprehensive, developmentally informed preschool assessments that guide early intervention and educational planning. We are familiar with the regional center process and preschool intake. We coordinate assessments, documentation, and meetings to support eligibility and service planning.

  • Socio-Emotional Assessments

    We provide comprehensive socioemotional evaluations (including ERMHS/ERICS) to identify counseling needs and guide supports. We assess emotional functioning, behavior regulation, social skills, trauma impact, and family/contextual factors affecting learning and placement. We offer evidence-based recommendations on counseling frequency, goals, progress monitoring, and eligibility/placement per district and Special Education standards. Reports are concise, practical for IEP/504 teams, administrators, and providers, and include measurable goals and suggested interventions.

  • Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)

    We perform FBAs using best practices: thorough interviews and rating scales plus systematic direct observations and ABC data. We combine quantitative and qualitative data to form empirically supported behavioral-function hypotheses and, when safe, validate them via functional analyses. We convert findings into individualized positive-behavior support plans with proactive antecedent strategies, skill teaching, measurable outcomes, and ongoing data monitoring with fidelity checks.

  • High Profile Assessments

    We have conducted numerous evaluations in collaboration with advocates and attorneys and consistently receive positive feedback on our coordinated approach. Our team integrates clinical rigor with clear, legally relevant documentation tailored to case needs. We are experienced in working within tight timelines and can prioritize urgent matters without compromising quality. When needed, we provide rapid-turnaround reports, timely expert testimony, and direct consultation to support strategy and case preparation.
