Comprehensive Diagnostic Assessments - Ellison Center

- Assessment process includes a face-to-face meeting with the caregiver(s), observation of the child in different environments, and conversations with teachers, child care providers and other professionals involved in the child's life. - Assessments provide a comprehensive understanding of each child's social, emotional, and behavioral development to determine a path for healing. - Clinicians completing assessments are licensed professionals with expertise in a wide range of children's social emotional concerns, aggressive behaviors, difficulties with soothing or calming, sleep disturbances, social skills, childhood depression, anxiety, and trauma. - Licensed mental health professionals work closely with each child and family to understand parents' questions, concerns, and worries, while building on each child's challenges and history. Parents receive a written summary with recommendations for what services or activities would be most helpful for the child's individual needs.
