By middle and high school, many students who once “got by” suddenly begin to struggle. Homework takes hours, anxiety increases, and motivation fades.
Psycho-educational testing helps families understand what’s happening beneath the surface. As academic demands increase, challenges with executive functioning, processing speed, working memory, attention, or learning disorders often emerge.
Testing is a powerful advocacy tool. Recommendations from a licensed neuropsychologist carry significant weight when requesting school and standardized testing accommodations.
For teens, testing can be deeply validating. It provides language, understanding, and tools for self-advocacy.
At Footprint NYC and New Jersey, we believe psycho-educational testing empowers adolescents during some of the most demanding years of their lives.
