Pediatric Neuropsychological Testing

Concerned about your child's development? Unsure how their medical issues impact their life?

At the Colorado Center for Assessment, our pediatric neuropsychological evaluations provide a window into how your child’s unique brain works—giving you clear answers and a concrete path forward.

Your Child's Challenges, Understood

Without proper neuropsychological assessment:

  • Your child’s true capabilities remain hidden or misunderstood
  • School approaches may not match how your child actually learns
  • Behavior is misinterpreted as willful rather than brain-based
  • You try strategy after strategy without lasting success
  • Your child’s self-esteem suffers with each struggle

Our pediatric neuropsychological testing provides:

  • Clear understanding of your child’s cognitive strengths and challenges
  • Insight into how your child’s brain processes information
  • Specific strategies that work with their unique brain wiring
  • School recommendations that actually make a difference
  • A path to restored confidence and academic success
