Psychoeducational Evaluations

IEE Evaluations

We provide comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations to assess Learning Disorders in Reading, Writing, and Math (Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, & Dysgraphia)

Welcome To San Diego Brainworks

Our highly skilled team of neuropsychologists and clinical psychologists understand how the brain functions and why behaviors and cognitive challenges present in various settings (school, home, work). Through this framework, we comprehensively evaluate and treat a variety of cognitive, behavioral, academic, medical, and emotional concerns.

 

Our goal is for clients and their families to fully understand the potential etiology of the concerns, diagnostic considerations, and specific treatment recommendations and accommodations to live a happier, healthier, and more balanced lives.

We look forward to working with you.
