The Testing Process

Intake: (90 minutes) via telehealth (virtual)

Durin the intake, you spend time with Dr. Banda reviewing your concerns, your goals for the evaluation, and sharing relevant background information. Dr. Banda uses this information to develop an assessment that is individualized to meet your needs.

Testing: 2-4 hours, 1-2 days

Depending on the goals for the evaluation, you are either scheduled for 1 or 2 days and the day of testing can range from 2-4 hours depending on your/your child’s age and the goals for testing.

Testing includes a variety of measures, including: direct assessment by Dr. Banda, questionnaire’s completed by you/your child, and questionnaires completed by teachers or other caregivers thatcan provide helpful information (e.g., partners, tutors, etc.). When appropriate, Dr. Banda consults with outside providers or referring clinicans (e.g., therapists).

Feedback: 1 hour, via telehealth (virtual)

At the time of the feedback, Dr. Banda explains testing results and any potential diagnoses, and she reviews personalized recommendations for ongoing support. An assessment report is provided after completion of the feedback session and includes all of the assessment data, interpretation, and recommendations.
