Many students who experience academic challenges or who are gifted qualify for individualized accommodations to help them succeed in school. At Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates, we offer comprehensive evaluations that assess cognitive, academic, neurological, and psychological functioning to accurately diagnose Learning Disabilities, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorders, other psychological conditions which could lead to a student being provided with an Individualized Education Program (IEP). Our evaluations can also be used to identify those students with exceptional intellectual abilities who may qualify for Gifted and Talented programming.
Our psychoeducational evaluations are designed to provide a detailed understanding of each student’s intellectual abilities, academic performance, attention levels, and social-emotional functioning. These evaluations are crucial for students seeking special education accommodations in the classroom, applying to specialized colleges, or needing support to navigate the unique academic challenges that come with being gifted. Whether it’s for academic support, college entrance, or securing accommodations, our evaluations provide the critical insights needed for success.
For gifted students, we can identify advanced intellectual abilities that might require different educational approaches, such as enrichment or acceleration, to keep them engaged and challenged. In these cases, our evaluations ensure that gifted students receive the appropriate support, tailored to their advanced cognitive abilities and developmental needs. Gifted students may also benefit from accommodations like individualized learning plans or access to advanced curriculum options.
Our team of licensed psychologists and certified school psychologists are highly trained and experienced in administering psychoeducational assessments. The recommendations provided by our team are widely accepted by both public and private schools and are based on the most current diagnostic criteria and best practices. Our approach ensures that students with learning challenges or advanced intellectual abilities are able to receive the support they need to thrive in their academic endeavors.
We also specialize in helping students with disabilities access accommodations such as extended time on exams, a separate testing location, or waivers for standardized tests, including the GRE, LSAT, MCAT, GMAT, bar exams, CPA exams, and other state-administered or professional certification tests. These accommodations can make a significant difference in a student’s ability to perform to their fullest potential during these high-stakes testing situations.
At Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates, we pride ourselves on offering thorough, individualized evaluations conducted by highly skilled psychologists. We prepare detailed, yet easy to read reports with clear, actionable recommendations that are customized to fit the individual’s learning needs and the specific requirements of the institution or agency receiving the final report.
After the evaluation, we offer a client feedback session where we take the time to walk through the results and explain the findings in detail. The feedback session focuses on highlighting the individual’s strengths and areas for growth, ensuring that you fully understand the evaluation results. We provide these results in a timely and efficient manner, so that students and families can begin to implement the necessary accommodations and interventions as soon as possible.
At Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates, we are committed to supporting students—whether they are struggling academically, are gifted, or face other learning challenges—in achieving their academic goals.
