The evaluation consists of 3 parts:

• The first part is a casual, informal meeting with you and your kiddo. This can take place virtually or in person at a location of your choice. I'll find out more information about you and what you're looking for while I get to know your child. This will take about an hour.

• The second part is the main component of the evaluation. I'll use the Functional Emotional Assessment Scale while observing your child in their natural environment. This can be in your home, in their classroom at school, or in the community. I'll follow their lead while introducing several engaging games & activities to assess functional emotional capacities. This part lasts about an hour and a half to two hours.

• The third & final component of the evaluation is where we discuss your child's strengths and their unique individual profile. If you decide that you are interested in pursuing DIRFloortime therapy, then we will discuss a therapy plan and individual goals for your child based on the FEAS and their emotional capacities that targets their strengths. Please note, you are NOT obligated to pursue DIRFloortime therapy following the evaluation! I am happy to refer you to other individuals if you feel like you'd like to go a different route.
