Child Therapists in Bartow County, GA
Parents seek an evaluation to assist with possible special education eligibility for their child.
Having conducted more than 2,700 one-on-one psychoeducational evaluations over the past 25 years, I understand the importance of psychological assessments as a tool to help maximize learning potential and be well-adjusted socially, emotionally, and behaviorally. My assessments have focused on areas such as ADHD, learning disabilities, and social/emotional/behavioral difficulties in Pre-K to Grade 12 students, college students, and adults. (I co-authored several books on special education-related topics - see https://www.alanbrue.com/books)

Life happens...There is no "money back guarantee" on relationships or experiences or even on thoughts or feelings. When things seem "off" or aren't going as they should, we have to figure out ways to adapt or cope with each situation. I hope to help clients build solid foundations in self-acceptance as well as in their relationships with their partners/spouses, children and parents, siblings, and in all avenues of their lives, so that they can adapt to each situation in a most healthy and positive manner. Personal growth is the key to positive change.
