What we offer

  • These assessments provide insights into a child's physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioral development, helping identify strengths, challenges, and potential developmental delays or disorders early on, so your child can receive the interventions they need in order to reach their unique potential.

  • Autism evaluations play a crucial role in promoting understanding and access to appropriate services and resources for individuals and their families within their communities.

    Dr. Mejia uses assessment tools such as the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS2), the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS-2) among others, to gain first-hand insights about your child’s challenges and strengths.

    We will walk through this process together, following your child’s progress and adjusting their educational plan as their needs change.

  • The evaluation process for ADHD is a thorough, systematic and designed to assess various aspects of a child's behavior to determine if they meet the criteria for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

    The evaluation involves a comprehensive review of medical history, developmental milestones, and behavioral patterns.

    Standardized rating scales, behavioral assessments, and interviews with parents, teachers, and other care providers are typically employed to gather information about attentional difficulties, hyperactivity, impulsivity, and related impairments across different settings.

  • Newborns are fragile in so many aspects, including their development.

    If you are the parent of a premature infant, or a baby with a prolonged NICU stay, developmental follow up and prompt interventions are a goo way to make sure your baby is thriving, not just growing.

  • What happens when your child just doesn’t fit into one label?

    All children are special and unique, and sometimes that reflects on their personal challenges. Together, we will figure out the best way to help them.

    Let’s remove the focus from what they’re lacking and discover the best way forward.

The evaluation process

Step 1 - Initial consult

We will schedule a 60-minute visit to have a thorough conversation about your child’s developmental trajectory and current functioning. We will also talk about prenatal, family and social history and any other important aspects that influence your child’s overall development.

Step 2 - Developmental Evaluations

I will complete in-depth developmental evaluations and specific assessments that will give me first-hand information about your child’s strengths and challenges in order to arrive to a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan.

Step 3 - Plan development and follow up

Guided by your child’s history and evaluation results, we will develop a concrete plan to address their needs and help them reach their potential.

After the initial diagnosis, we will continue working together to measure progress and create new goals as needed.
