Gain a clear understanding of your child’s cognitive, emotional, and academic needs through our comprehensive neuropsychological, psychological, and educational evaluations. Our services also include specialized dyslexia evaluations, focusing on reading and language processing challenges, as well as autism spectrum evaluations to provide diagnostic clarity and tailored intervention plans for individuals with ASD.
The education system is complex and can be overwhelming. We’ll help you navigate it. Our services include reviewing, attending, and assisting with the development of IEPs (Individualized Education Programs), conducting school, classroom, and program observations to assess a child’s needs, and offering guidance on the most effective educational strategies. We also provide ongoing support through our Navigating the Education System (SOS) program.
A child’s needs may change or evolve over time. CCNS supports parents in understanding their child’s unique strengths, challenges, and overall profile. This will help develop tailored intervention plans that optimize functioning, performance, and well-being at home and school. We’ll guide you to ensure support remains appropriate and everyone involved in your child’s care has a comprehensive understanding of their evolving needs.
