A combined developmental,
neuropsychological and psycho-
educational assessment conducted by
Dr. B. Gindis is recommended for a child,
exhibiting symptoms of certain
cognitive impairments (memory,
attention, comprehension, language
issues), behavioral problems or
emotional
disturbance, the nature of
which needs to be understood to develop
a comprehensive remedial program for
this child. Our multifaceted assessment includes developmental, neuropsychological and psycho-educational evaluation components; it establishes the diagnosis and provides detailed analysis of the neurological impairment in question as well as remedial programming and school-related educational recommendations for your child.


In such cases the child may typically live in the adoptive family for several years already, has completely lost the native language and speaks fluent English, demonstrates significant issues in varies psychological domains, continues to lag behind developmentally or exhibits difficulties with specific cognitive and educational tasks. At this point these problems cannot be explained any longer within typical "The child needs to learn more English" approach; the real neurological roots of the issues must be found to address them and find the ways to compensate for them.

In certain complex cases of neurological impairment (typically, physical traumas in accidents) a team of two most experienced psychologists Dr. Elkhonon Goldberg and Dr. Boris Gindis is available to combine their efforts to work with you and your child to determine the roots of the impairment and to develop the best remedial program for the child at school and outside of it.

Call the office for the details of this service.
