Understand How Your Child Learns And How to Support Them

If your child is struggling in school despite trying their best, it can be confusing and frustrating, for both of you.

You may be wondering:

Why is this so hard for them?

Are we missing something?

How do I actually help?

A learning disability evaluation provides the clarity you’ve been searching for.

At Glacier Psychology Services, we offer comprehensive academic and learning evaluations for children and adolescents, helping families understand how their child learns and what support will help them succeed.

SIGNS YOUR CHILD MAY NEED TESTING

You may want to consider a learning evaluation if your child:

• Struggles with reading, writing, or math

• Has difficulty keeping up academically despite effort

• Becomes easily frustrated with schoolwork

• Avoids homework or school-related tasks

• Has inconsistent performance across subjects

• Takes significantly longer to complete assignments

• Has been flagged by a teacher or school

Sometimes these challenges are related to a learning disability, but not always.

Testing helps move beyond assumptions and provides clear, individualized answers.

WHAT IS A LEARNING DISABILITY?

Learning disabilities are not a reflection of intelligence or potential.

Many children with learning differences are bright, capable, and motivated, but process information in ways that require different supports.

Common areas we evaluate include:

• Reading (Dyslexia)

• Writing (Dysgraphia)

• Math (Dyscalculia)

• Executive functioning and processing skills

Understanding how your child learns is the first step in helping them thrive.

OUR APPROACH

Comprehensive, Individualized, and Strength-Based

At Glacier, we take the time to understand your child as a whole, not just their academic performance.

Our evaluations may include:

• Cognitive (IQ) testing

• Academic achievement testing

• Executive functioning assessment

• Attention and processing measures

• Parent interview and developmental history

• School input 

We look at both strengths and areas of difficulty, so recommendations are realistic, supportive, and effective.

WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE

At the end of the evaluation, you will receive:

• A clear diagnosis (if appropriate)

• A comprehensive written report

• Specific recommendations for:

  • School accommodations (IEP/504 plans)

  • Academic support strategies

  • Therapy or intervention services

We also provide a feedback session to ensure you fully understand the results and next steps.

WHY TESTING MATTERS

Without clarity, it’s easy for children to feel discouraged and for parents to feel unsure how to help.

A learning evaluation helps you:

• Understand your child’s unique learning profile

• Advocate for appropriate school support

• Reduce frustration and build confidence

• Create a clear, effective plan forward

When children are supported in the way they learn best, everything can begin to shift.
