Evaluations at North Shore Psychological Services

At North Shore Psychological Services, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive psychological evaluations tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Our team of fully licensed Ph.D. level psychologists specializes in a range of assessments, including autism specialty reports, OPWDD evaluations, and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) assessments.

Comprehensive Psychological Assessments
Our evaluations encompass various domains to ensure a thorough understanding of an individual's cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. These assessments are instrumental in identifying specific needs and formulating effective intervention strategies. Our services include:

  • Psychoeducational Evaluations: Designed to determine the need for accommodations within educational settings, such as 504 plans or Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). These evaluations assess intellectual functioning, adaptive behavior, and academic achievement, providing detailed reports with actionable recommendations.
  • Diagnostic Evaluations: Focused on identifying conditions like ADHD, learning disorders, anxiety, depression, and autism spectrum disorder. Accurate diagnoses are essential for developing targeted treatment plans and accessing appropriate services.

Specialization in Autism Assessments
We recognize the importance of precise and timely autism evaluations across all age groups. Our approach includes:
  • Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS): Utilized as our core evaluation tool, the ADOS is the gold standard for diagnosing autism spectrum disorder. This assessment provides a structured observation of social and communicative behaviors relevant to autism.
  • Autism Specialty Reports: These detailed reports are often necessary when applying for services such as early intervention, OPWDD support, educational assistance, or workplace accommodations. They offer in-depth insights and tailored recommendations to support individuals in various aspects of life.

OPWDD Evaluations
For individuals seeking services from the Office for People With Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD), our evaluations are designed to meet the specific criteria required for eligibility. We provide comprehensive assessments that include diagnostic impressions and recommendations aligned with OPWDD standards, facilitating access to essential support services.
