Q: Why Should A Student Have A Psychoeducational Evaluation?
A psychoeducational evaluation is often needed before a school will consider providing academic accommodations or special education services. While a diagnosis of ADHD or anxiety disorder can be made by other mental health professionals, some schools require documentation of how that diagnosis is negatively affecting a student’s academic performance or ability to learn. A psychoeducational evaluation sometimes includes a comprehensive assessment of personality structure and social-emotional functioning to facilitate making a differential diagnosis or developing an effective treatment plan. They can also be used to help improve a student’s insight into their learning challenges so the student can better advocate for themselves.
