Collaborative Partnerships with Monitoring Professionals

Counselors provide open communication with client approval on all monitoring professionals such as teachers, psychiatrists, and community agencies to ensure each client receives the best possible care.

Dyslexia Testing- Dyslexia is an issue that is not recognized in most schools. It is often diagnosed as a reading comprehension issue, a language processing problem, and a variety of other learning disability issues. Parents find that after all of the interventions tried at home and at school their child is still not progressing and retaining information as one would expect to happen after so much repeated teaching.

One common myth about dyslexia is that it is a medical diagnosis. This is not the case. There is no single test that will test for dyslexia. The testing requires an extensive battery of tests that will assess specific areas that only people with dyslexia will display difficulties with. Dyslexia is not about “seeing words backwards”. It is a combination of reading and spelling difficulties coupled with difficulties in memorizing random facts (multiplication tables, abc’s, address etc)and other very unique traits. If you suspect that you or a child is having some of these unique challenges, give our office a call for more information.
