Understanding Psychoeducational Evaluations and Assessments: Your Path to Empowerment

When your child is struggling, the right answers can open doors. At Frankenberger Associates, our psychoeducational evaluations provide more than just testing—they offer a clear roadmap to understanding how your child learns and where support is needed.

Why Have Your Child Evaluated?

Whether you're navigating school challenges, considering an IEP or 504 Plan, or looking for clarity around ADHD, dyslexia, or executive functioning, our assessments deliver the documentation and insight needed to move forward with confidence. If you’ve been searching for “dyslexia testing near me” or “educational evaluations for learning differences,” you’re in the right place. Our comprehensive evaluations not only provide diagnostic clarity but also give you the tools to advocate for your child at school—and the strategies to support them at home. Let’s explore how our specific assessment options can benefit your family.

Identify Hidden Learning Disabilities

Sometimes, school struggles aren’t just about effort. Psychoeducational testing can uncover learning disabilities that may be hindering your child’s progress.

Tailor Educational Strategies

By clearly understanding your child’s strengths and weaknesses, we can help develop personalized learning strategies that work.

Early Intervention

The sooner we identify any issues, the more effective our interventions can be. Early testing for learning disabilities can set your child up for long-term success.

Boost Confidence and Self-Understanding

Children who understand their learning profile are better equipped to advocate for themselves and feel confident in their abilities.

Support for Gifted Learners

Even high-achieving students can benefit from assessments, which can identify areas where they may need additional challenge or support.

Psychoeducational Evaluation

Our comprehensive Psychoeducational Evaluation gives families an in-depth understanding of how their child thinks, learns, and thrives best. Whether you’re pursuing a formal diagnosis like dyslexia, ADHD, or a learning disability—or simply seeking clarity around your child’s academic challenges—our evaluations are designed to uncover both strengths and areas of challenge. Through this holistic process, we explore:

Our goal is to provide not just a diagnosis when appropriate, but a roadmap: clear, actionable recommendations to support your child at school, at home, and beyond.

Dyslexia Evaluation

Our Dyslexia and Reading Evaluations are designed to provide clear answers and personalized guidance. We don’t just look at where your child is struggling—we dig deep to understand why. We assess a wide range of skills that impact reading and writing, helping families and schools understand a student who has dyslexia or other language-based learning disablities. Our goal is to uncover your child’s strengths, pinpoint specific challenges, and identify the most effective evidence-based interventions.

  • Phonological Processing
  • Vocabulary & Word Retrieval
  • Phonics & Word Analysis Skills

Frankenberger Associates has had the privilege of helping thousands of families, schools, and students transform their learning experience.

I'm so glad I took the Understanding Diverse Learning Profiles course. It introduced some ideas that were new to me, and also brought clarity and cohesion to ideas that I had picked up along the way, but didn’t have a context for. I gained greater fluency in the concepts and terminology that my colleagues in learning support use routinely, so I’m now better prepared to engage in meaningful conversation with them about how our school supports students. The readings and videos were varied and thought-provoking, and the regular meetings with the cohort and the instructors were helpful, motivating, and fun! The...

This 6-module online course is the best training I have ever participated in. As an IEC who provides high school and college consulting for students who have specific learning, cognitive and/or developmental challenges, the course deepened my understanding of learning challenges, and my ability to read and interpret evaluations. I developed new questioning techniques to discern my students’ learning strengths, average abilities, and challenges, and I watched the videos and read the supplemental articles on my own timeline, there was no pressure. Quite simply, this course was a game changer for me, and I think it will be the same...

My student, while a relatively new client of Frankenberger Associates, is already finding work with his coach to be helpful and effective.

Eagle Hill School and I personally have worked with Frankenberger Associates for over twenty years, and I have enjoyed and benefited greatly from our incredibly long and strong relationship. Caryl Frankenberger is a trusted and knowledgeable colleague and friend. Many years ago, Caryl gave a presentation to the EHS faculty on cognitive testing, and to this day, I am grateful to Caryl for this presentation. I have worked with Caryl and have likely read more than 100 of her evaluations in considering her clients for EHS. Caryl’s evaluations are well-written and help the reader to get...

Understanding Diverse Learning Profiles is a wonderful study of student learning profiles, misconceptions, types of assessments to determine how students learn, reading psychoeducational testing reports, and classroom supports. It is a course that brings together the needs and perspectives of the admission team, classroom educators, and learning support professionals to create a stronger student success model. As a veteran admission professional, it provided me with insight to better understand the needs of our applicants and students. I am much more confident in my ability to read and understand testing reports and how a learning profile may present in the classroom....

Frankenberger Associates truly understands the way children interact in the real world. This gives them a unique ability to help children for whom social interactions are difficult. In less than one year of weekly sessions, my child has gained a wealth of knowledge about social skills and behavior and new insight into his own and his peers' situations. He has learned, among many things, to "read a room," to slip in and out of conversation easily, how to ask questions and keep a conversation moving along, how to advocate for himself with others, and how to make and keep friends....

I am thrilled to share my experience after receiving my certificate from Frankenberger Associates in Understanding Diverse Learning Profiles. This course has truly transformed my approach to working with prospective and current families, as well as lower and middle school faculty, learning support staff, and administration. The valuable tools and insights I gained have deepened my understanding of diverse learning profiles, allowing me to speak confidently and knowledgeably about my candidates. This has fostered trust and collaboration within our community, making a significant impact on our partnerships. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to admission professionals and anyone involved in supporting students....

The workshops that Frankenberger Associates have provided to our entire faculty and individual teachers has strengthened the professional skills and knowledge of the educators at Woodhall. Connecting theory and practice with an appealing mix of lucidity and common sense, Caryl and her colleagues engaged with our school community in a way that is accessible and applicable.

Matthew Woodhall, Head of School, Woodhall School

My experience with my coach and executive function coaching as a whole has been life changing. Coaching has altered various facets of my daily life, from my morning routine to strategies aiding productivity at school, and a much needed introduction to self-care practices like yoga and meditation. Further, my coach has opened my eyes to the world where negativity does not rule my life. I am now able to recognize my thoughts and actions and reframe them into a more positive outlook. With the guidance of my coach, I have been actively combatting my dependency on extra stimuli that my...

Caryl and her team are experts in helping students see major improvements in focus, organization, and memory, making daily tasks and long-term goals feel so much more manageable.
