Assessments

Assessment

An assessment objectively documents your communication difficulties, identifies your needs and intervention goals with you, and proposes ways to address them. An assessment usually takes 1 to 3 sessions, depending on what needs to be assessed.

Assessment fees cover administering the assessment tasks, interpreting the results, sharing the results with you, and writing the assessment report and intervention plan.

After the assessment, a feedback session is held to present the intervention goals that follow from the results and from your own plans. Intervention options are also discussed.
