What will happen during a Psychoeducational/Learning Disabilities Evaluation?

As a clinician trained in School Psychology, I receive numerous phone calls from parents or adults interested in psychoeducational testing (learning disabilities testing). In fact, this is a great deal of the types of calls that I receive because of my professional background and training. During my conversations with callers, I am often asked, “What happens during testing?” This is an extremely common question for me and I get it. People feel a lot of anxiety when they don’t know what to expect. Therefore, I am always glad to answer that question. I hope that by writing this blog post I can answer this commonly asked question for anyone looking for information about what is involved in psychoeducational/learning disabilities testing.
