Frequently Asked Questions

 

What ages do you work witH?

It’s recommended that your child has had their 5th birthday before testing begins. I can work with children, teenagers, and young adults.

What materials do i need?

Christen provides the testing materials, included in your cost. All your student needs is an internet connection, a quiet space, and a willingness to try!

how long does it take?

I block two-hour sessions at a time, and the number of sessions depends on the assessment plan and how slowly or quickly the child progresses through the tasks.

what happens when testing is over?

When testing is completed, Christen works on a comprehensive report including all scores and interpretations. You will have a feedback session where everything is explained to you, and what your options are moving forward. Many parents choose to take the assessment to their child’s school or tutoring clinic for tailored plan. High school or college students can also use this evaluation for Section 504 accommodations.

how do i pay?

Payment is accepted through a secure link once all intake forms are received. Any major credit card is accepted. A 15% discount is applied when you pay in full, or you can choose payments in 3 installments. At this time, insurance is not accepted.

How is this different from other testing centers or doctors?

As an educational diagnostician, I specialize in assessing and understanding learning difficulties within an educational context, focusing on academic performance and cognitive performance. A doctor, such as a pediatrician or neurologist, evaluates medical aspects and may prescribe medications. While both professionals play important roles, I’m going to focus on cognitive areas related to learning and development.

i’m embarrassed about my child’s struggles, will anyone know?

All information is kept strictly confidential, and I won’t share with anyone without your explicit written consent to do so.
